Planters for trees and flowers are welcome
Building in nesting facilities, especially for swifts and kestrels, would be especially welcome
Para 3
I agree with the need to radically alter the gyratory system. The current situation is terrifying for cyclists forced to change lanes within fast-moving traffic, and pedestrians, e.g. crossing Croftholme Lane without zebra crossing or visibility. Traffic also divides shops and other services, losing all sense of a neighbourhood. What cycle lanes there are simply stop in the middle of roads, or are used for car parking.
Proposals
There needs to be provision for all buses (including park and ride) to stop in a coherent line, so everyone can continue their journey.
Sufficient separation of pedestrians and traffic. The safety of children, both physical safety and air quality, is paramount
Planters for trees and flowers are welcome
Sitting-out areas are most popular near the river, rather than on roads
