Roads and transport Parsonage Road safer streets

Project timeline

March/April 2021 – Have your say 

We asked for your feedback about what makes your area a good or bad place to live, and what improvements you might like to see. This was collected through postal and online surveys.  

Spring/Summer 2021 – What you said 

All your comments and ideas were summarised and fed back to you via the project website and through online workshops, creating a vision for the active neighbourhood design process 

Summer 2021 - Design locally 

Using these ideas, online design workshops were held with local people to come up with a design for Safer Streets. This was then made available for you to comment on and shape further.  

Summer 2022  - Sharing the draft plan 

A mailout was sent to all properties in the project area with the draft design and survey. A drop-in session was hosted to gather your feedback. Following this a feasibility report was produced and the survey results showed that the public was in favour of the proposals.

Winter 2022/Spring 2023 - Trial scheme design

The outline design that was developed with residents will be prepared to be delivered as a trial. In addition to the technical design for the trial works, prior to any trial starting, we will engage with key stakeholders, like the emergency services and local schools.

Summer 2023 – Trial installation and beginning of monitoring

Starting in mid August the scheme will be installed and its impact monitored for a period of at least 6 months. People will be asked for their feedback throughout the trial so that we can work together to make your streets safer.
