This is an obvious, natural link from the Industrial area to the estates east of the North Road.

The existing uncontrolled crossing is bizarrely off line, introducing inconvenience for the sake of it.

All of that guard railing gives out all the wrong messages - "don't walk or cycle it isn't safe".

Recommendations:
1. Realign the crossing to the end of Willowside Way.
2. Remove guard railing.
3. Put the crossing on a broad raised platform to highlight its presence.
4. Put in cycle friendly traffic calming on North Road to bring speeds down, encourage cycling and discourage driving.
