Submission Documents: By Councillor Martha Wardrop:- "Council welcomes the significant investment of £7.5m from the Transport Scotland's Spaces for People programme in measures to provide additional space for physical distancing in public places for people to walk, wheel or cycle while COVID-19 restrictions remain in place across the city. Council acknowledges the importance of the completion of a network of safe, high-quality spaces for cycling and wheeling, including low traffic neighbourhoods and segregated arterial routes connecting the city centre to suburbs and peripheral neighbourhoods, with a commitment to deliver 20mph speed limits on residential roads on a city-wide basis. Council also supports the early roll-out of 'car free' zones to more schools and locations attended by large numbers of potentially vulnerable pedestrians, building on lessons emerging from the current pilot. In addition, the Council agrees to continue to develop community engagement to help identify locations in the city centre and across neighbourhoods that could be improved to protect public health, support physical distancing and prevent the spread of Covid-19. The Council will monitor and evaluate projects using data gathering technologies and feedback provided by members of the public to enable progress of appropriate schemes for permanence." Help Icon
