07/09/2022 - Notice of Motion by Councillor Stewart to consider options for pedestrian crossings on King's Gate and Forest Road - OPE/22/076

The Committee resolved:-

(i)              to note the review as recorded within the report;

(ii)             to agree the current pedestrian crossing infrastructure on King’s Gate near Forest Road meets the needs of local people, including children and their families walking to local schools; and

(iii)            to note that the results of observational surveys and a cursory pedestrian routes to school plotting exercise showed a moderate demand to cross King’s Gate near Moray Place, and instruct the Chief Officer, Operations and Protective Services to install a new pedestrian island with minor adjustments to the existing infrastructure.
