Margate Road, Ramsgate - proposed zebra crossing

Update September 2024:

Thank you to everyone who took part in this consultation. The Consultation Report is now available in the Documents section on this page.

The report will be presented to the Thanet Joint Transportation Board on 12 September 2024 and a recommendation will be taken regarding how to proceed with the scheme.

We are consulting on a proposal to install a new pedestrian crossing on Margate Road in Ramsgate. We are proposing to install a zebra crossing on Margate Road near the junction with Newlands Road and Whitehall Road.

The works would include new road markings, flashing orange beacons and high friction surfacing.

This proposal aims to provide a safer crossing point in this part of Margate Road for pedestrians, including students travelling to and from Royal Harbour Academy (lower site) and children with parents travelling to Foreland Fields Primary School.
