Meadows to Canal
We are developing a new and improved cycle and walking connection between the Union Canal and the Meadows along National Cycle Network Route 75 (NCN75)
The aims of this scheme are to:
The planned cycle improvements include:
The planned walking improvements include:
We would not normally consult on a project for a second time before the Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) process however, due to the delay in the scheme progressing we feel it is important to re-engage with the public and inform them of changes since the last consultation in 2014.
In order to best accomodate the needs of the local businesses on Home Street the we are now proposing to route the segregated cycle lane down the West side of the street. The existing pedestrian crossing is to be relocated to the junction of Lochrin Terrace to be more appropriate for those walking to and from Lochrin Terrace where Tollcross Primary is located.
Other significant changes include the pedestrianisation of Tarvit Street and the path widening between Valleyfield Street and Melville Drive.
We are also proposing a number of continuous footways that will prioritise pedestrian movements at side roads.
All the responses will be collated and a response will be provided in due course.
