The Leader of the Council:
 
1.     
Noted the efforts that have gone into extending the
engagement with the local
community and stakeholders for the London
Road active travel corridor in Guildford and acknowledge the
feedback provided on the scheme proposals.
2.     
Proceeded with the construction of Section 2 –
Boxgrove Roundabout based on the strength of support from the local
community, with the detailed design incorporating comments from the
community engagement to deliver a scheme that prioritises
pedestrians and cyclists.
3.     
Deferred a decision on Section 1 subject to further
design review informed by comments received through the engagement
to ensure that the scheme considers the needs of all road users,
with further consideration to be given by the Leader at a future
date.
4.     
In the interim, committed to
progressing with the delivery of a controlled crossing near
Winterhill Way to assist with safer routes to school, following
strong representation from local
stakeholders.  
5.     
Did not proceed with Section 3 - Boxgrove Roundabout
to York Road, as there were legitimate concerns raised about the
design of this section and there is an existing alternative route
through Stoke Park, but instead to progress with the delivery of a
more targeted improvement in the form of a zebra crossing on the
junction of Nightingale Road and London Road
