Background:
This report provided details of the options appraisal for the Twydall Accessibility Scheme. The reasons for the proposed scheme were reducing through vehicular traffic use of the local roads and reducing general traffic speed to around 20 mph, in the interest of improving road safety and pedestrian accessibility. The scheme was prepared towards the end of 2008 and proposed the introduction of traffic calming measures on most roads within the identified area, through the provision of speed cushions.
The Regeneration, Community and Culture Overview and Scrutiny Committee considered the report in December 2009 and its comments were set out in paragraph 2 of the report. A plan detailing the proposed scheme had been circulated separately to Members.
