Work to install new pedestrian safety measures at the Octagon roundabout and around the new Plymouth School of Creative Arts will get under way on Monday 24 August.
The scheme is being funded by developer contributions as one of the planning conditions for the school and will help to improve access and safety for pedestrians using the area.
Work to improve the zebra crossing at the bottom of Alma Road (near the junction of Whittington Street) will begin tomorrow (Tuesday 10 February).
The refuge in the middle of the crossing is being widened to provide more space for pedestrians and new tactile paving will be provided on either side for the visually impaired.
Lane closures will be in place in both directions...
A programme of protective micro-asphalting will get under way on city roads on Thursday 2 October.
Micro-asphalting is used as a preventative measure on roads that are showing the early signs of wear and tear. It fills in all the cracks, potholes and voids, improves skid resistance and seals the road, preventing water getting in and extending its life.
