In the approved planning application for Bedminster Green Plot 4 by Dandara, Stafford Street is described as a “Pedestrian Priority Street”.
However, in the most recent highway details for Stafford Street (see 21/04684/COND), pedestrians are shown as occupying a 2.2m wide footway alongside a 1.1m wide cycleway separated only by a white line. This effectively means a shared use space for what is supposed to become both a key walking route and a key cycle route.
BWA has submitted an objection and urged that road space is re-apportioned to allow adequate segregated space for both pedestrians and cyclists.
