Access
is already difficult the restrictions will make it almost impossible.
The
length of Jericho Street marked for closure should be one way towards
Walton Street. King street should remain two way
|
The
scheme is intended to create an island around the school that deters
unnecessary vehicle use of these streets by introducing restricted
routes.
The
length of Jericho Street identified for closure is very narrow and
is also used as the main pedestrian route for the school.
The
restrictions will not prevent access to King Street. However a more
considered approach will be necessary by drivers.

Make
Jericho Street one way.
Loading
vehicles often blocks King Street.
The
scheme will divert traffic into Cranham St and Great Clarendon Street
The
entry treatments will cause unnecessary traffic noise.
Suggests
looking at the whole school journey.

The
closure at the top of Jericho Street and the restriction point in
King Street create a one way route. However, vehicles in Jericho
Street can travel in both directions if necessary.
The
scheme is intended to keep vehicles accessing the area away from
the school.
Speeds
will be lower and vehicle noise shouldn’t become more intrusive.
The
scheme is only one part of the Better Ways to School project.

Objects
to proposals as unnecessary.
Vehicles
use these streets for legitimate business purpose.
Currently
there are no problems for cyclists and pedestrians in these streets.

The
scheme is intended to create an island around the school that deters
unnecessary vehicle use of these streets.
Access
is still available to all businesses.
Scheme
will create a better environment for cyclists and pedestrians.
