Issue details
Joseph Rowntree Secondary School - Zebra Crossing and Off-road Cycle Links
Purpose of the Report: Walking and cycling
facilities in the vicinity of Joseph Rowntree Secondary School have been reviewed, and
pupils who live south of the school were found to have fewer
facilities directly on their route to school. This report puts
forward a highway improvement scheme to provide a raised zebra
crossing on the pedestrian desire line, and to give less confident
cyclists an off-road alternative on this section of busy narrow
road. It also summarises the consultation with interested parties
in order to recommend a way forward.
The Cabinet Member will be asked to approve the implementation of
the proposals, and approve the advertising of the extension to the
existing 20mph speed limit order.
