No pavement with risk to foot traffic
From "Interactive map: add your concerns and ideas"
Go to the project
With the new developments, people are now frequently walking along the main B road here where there is no pavement and space is tight. They are often not very visible, and lighting here is also not good. Presumably foot traffic here will keep increasing as house building expands.There needs to be a safe route for people on these new estates to walk towards town.

There are no pavements on the B3092. The safe walking routes identified by the developers are not direct, so people don’t use them, unless they’re out for a stroll. Which means if people want to get to the co op, to the post box, or into town, they will walk the most direct route, which is along the road. With more development down to Blatchbridge, there will be more people, therefore more pedestrians on the road. Please put in pavements before someone is seriously injured, or killed.

Current safe walking routes suggested by the developers take you 3 sides of a rectangle - so people walk along the road. Pavements are needed along the B3092 adjacent to the developments where there is space (and in places there is) and then suitable crossing points and means to slow traffic
