Safer, Better Streets - Goldstone Villas Roundabout
We’re looking to improve the Goldstone Villas roundabout as part of our Safer, Better Streets programme.
Every year we assess requests for safety improvements all over the city, using our 'Safer, Better Streets’ assessment process.
The proposals for this scheme focus on the crossroads on Goldstone Villas, Eaton Villas and Clarendon Villas where there is currently a mini roundabout.
The proposed improvements to the layout include:
- Removing the mini roundabout
- Creating a raised junction to reduce speeds
- Installing give-way instruction lines on Clarendon Villas at the junction with Goldstone Villas
- Widening the pavements on Eaton Villas and Clarendon Villas at the junctions to create more space for pedestrians
- Making the junction of Eaton Villas and Goldstone Villas one way for motor vehicles
- Improving the pedestrian crossing point on Eaton Villas
- Adding a new crossing point across Goldstone Villas
- Upgrading the current crossing on Clarendon Villas to a zebra crossing
We want to hear your views
The survey is open until 2 September 2024 and should take no more than 5 minutes to complete.
You can find more information on our Safer, Better Streets webpage, including how you can request a road safety improvement.
Phases
Finalising design
We'll be looking to put final touches on the design and preparing for the TRO (Traffic Regulation Order).
TROs are the legal documents behind the rules of the road. They allow us to enforce traffic and parking restrictions.
We advertise proposals for new restrictions via a public notice. You can comment on the proposals during a 21-day period on our Traffic Regulation Order webpage.
If required, the council Cabinet member for Transport, Parking and Public Realm will then consider objections and comments of support. The Cabinet member will decide if the proposals should go ahead as they are, with changes, or not at all.
If the proposals are approved, the scheme will then proceed to construction and we'll notify you.
