Meeting: 17/03/2016 - Central Stockport Area Committee (Item 8)
To consider a report of the Chief Executive
The report sets out the proposed pedestrian and cyclist improvements, improvements to the perceived safety issues at the subway system and inner roundabout island and seeks to formalise this as a cycle route connecting the Town Centre Access Package ‘TCAP’ scheme 903 Lancashire Hill shared-use pedestrian/ cyclist path scheme (Penny Lane to the Town Centre) to provide a cycle link to the Trans Pennine Trail ‘TPT’ at Tiviot Dale. In addition, this scheme will compliment TCAP scheme 906 (Belmont Way-A6 to Lancashire Hill cycle scheme). The scheme includes the introduction of a CCTV system, the cutting back/ removal of vegetation/ trees and drainage, lighting, signing improvements.
The Area Committee is requested to approve the Traffic Regulation Order detailed in Schedules 1 and 2 of the report.
