TRESA asked a question, about the proposed new pedestrian crossing between St Lukes steps and Victoria Park, at the Area Committee 5 meeting on 10 November 2022 (Public Pack)Public Forum Agenda Supplement for Area Committee 5, 10/11/2022 17:30 (bristol.gov.uk) and received the following response:
The public engagement exercise that took place in July and August this year showed that over 80% of respondents strongly agreed or agreed with a zebra crossing in the proposed location 27m south of the St Luke’s Road steps. The detailed results from the survey should now be available in full on the Ask Bristol website (www.ask.bristol.gov.uk). Given this level of support from the community, Local Councillors have given their backing to this proposal and the preliminary design has now been given technical approval by officers. The next stage will be to publish a Statutory Notice to advertise our intention to install a crossing in this location. This is a legal process and gives anyone the opportunity to raise a formal objection to the proposed crossing. This takes some time to prepare. If approved, the detailed design will then be undertaken to finalise the precise details of the design before a contractor can be appointed to undertake the work (potentially Spring 2023).
