Traffic calming exhibition

A proposed scheme has been designed to reduce vehicle speeds along the road and provide improvements for pedestrians.

The scheme includes new traffic islands to slow speeds and help pedestrians cross the road safely, a kerb build out to reduce the road to a single lane near Glenleigh Park Road and alternating one way access, controlled by traffic lights, between Deans Drive and Beatrice Walk. Access improvements will also be made at the bus stops.

Letters will be delivered to residents in the immediate area giving details of the proposals and on Friday, April 25 from 4pm to 7pm and Saturday, April 26 from 10am to 1pm there will be at an exhibition at Bexhill High (Gunters Lane site). Council officers will be available to discuss the proposals and answer any queries.

After the exhibition, plans will remain available at the school or can be viewed on the County Council website (www.eastsussex.gov.uk/haveyoursay)

Subject to the outcome of this consultation process and it is intended to introduce this scheme during the 2008/09 financial year.
