We are developing plans for Stage 3 of the road safety improvements on The Loaning, Motherwell.
Letters are being sent to directly affected residents with details of the proposals and asking for feedback.
The Stage 3 proposals, which are focused on improvements at the junction of The Loaning and Ladywell Road, include:
- installing traffic signals which will include pedestrian crossing facilities
- improved street lighting
- relocation and improvements to the southbound bus stop, including a widened footway
- road and footway resurfacing, and
- new waiting/loading restrictions at the junction to ensure the safe and effective operation of the traffic signals.
The council will consider all the feedback from the consultation before preparing final plans for the location.
“We are continuing to engage with affected residents and businesses as we work to address road safety issues on The Loaning and neighbouring streets,” said Councillor Paul Kelly, Depute Council Leader.
“I would ask residents to consider carefully the proposals for this next stage of work and give us their views to ensure the improvements will be effective for the people who live in the area.”
