Public Notice of Proposals

Moray Council, in accordance with its powers under Section 23 of the Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984, gives notice of the intention to establish, alter, or removing a pedestrian Crossing as follows

Schedule 1

To establish new crossings at:

Note- ‘Zig Zag’ markings will be installed at either side of the crossing which will prohibit stopping on the approach/exit of the crossing.

Schedule 2

To remove a crossing at:

Statement of Reasons

Both the new crossings are on routes to school and at locations which have been identified has having a large number of pupils and others crossing the road. It is therefore our intention to introduce a crossing for both pedestrians and cyclists at these locations.

The equipment at the existing crossing in Schedule 2 is now obsolete and since its introduction in July 2007 there has been significant development on the south side of Thornhill Road meaning the majority of pedestrians now cross at School Walk. The Pelican will be replaced by a central refuge island.

Plans showing the location of the new crossings may be inspected online at www.tellmescotland.gov.uk/notices/moray/traffic

Any comments on the proposals should be received by Monday 10^th October to roadsafety@moray.gov.uk
