Purpose

This report outlines proposals to provide a cycle track with a parallel crossing on a road-hump, across its junction with Kingsway, on Liverpool Road, Penwortham.

Consultation and formal advertising of the proposals has been undertaken with a number of objections received.

In view of the local response regarding the proposed introduction of a one-way traffic restriction on Kingsway, a revised scheme is proposed which retains the existing two-way traffic flow whilst also managing and reducing the risk to active travel users to support the delivery of a segregated cycle track.

Decision

The Cabinet approved the recommendation(s) as set out in the report.
