Decisions

The Cabinet Member for Communities and Housing has approved the implementation of revised scheme design proposals amended from initial approval 3rd February 2017 (EMDCH41).  During the design process a few changes were made to the original scheme layout, which were significant enough to seek further approval. The amended scheme design (drawing: Project/1174/GA-01/GMCRP revision B dated 21/04/2017) was circulated to and agreed by Ward Councillors 02/05/2017.

The changes include:

·         Central double sided vehicle restraint system rather than two single sided barriers

·         New central island to the south of Oldmoor Road to assist cyclist to cross and access the cycle path thus avoiding the roundabout
