We have reviewed and considered all of the responses to the consultation and are thankful to everyone who took the time to respond.
This scheme will be taken forward to detailed design stage and will be subject to a further safety audit.
A Traffic Regulation Order consultation will be required to implement the one-way and speed limit change proposals. Following the comments received and resident representation by the Local Member, we have reassessed the one-way design. The proposal now looks to implement a northbound one-way design instead.
A copy of the Consultation Report is now available in the Documents section.
Earlier this year, we carried out a consultation focused on eight of the Green Corridor schemes to gather views on our initial route proposals. The feedback for the Bean Road scheme was positive and revealed that respondents would welcome improvements along this route. The responses highlighted that there are:
positive views of sustainable and active travel and an appreciation of the benefits walking and cycling improvements can have to health and the environment
positive views of the scheme and that the one-way restriction will prevent some inconsiderate use of the road.
some concerns that the existing level of fly tipping will continue and block any widened paving.
The feedback has helped shape our initial ideas to create the more specific proposals shown in this consultation. The results of the previous consultation have been presented in a summary report.
We are keen to hear your views on the proposals presented in the consultation brochure. Have your say by completing the online questionnaire.
Your feedback will be used to help form our final detailed design.
