Safer, Better Streets - Surrenden Road / Surrenden Holt and Varndean College entrance

We’re looking to improve the pedestrian crossing facilities on Surrenden Road (north of Surrenden Holt) and outside the Varndean College vehicle entrance to make the crossings safer for all users.

Every year we assess requests for safety improvements all over the city, using our 'Safer, Better Streets’ assessment process.

The proposed improvements on Surrenden Road / Surrenden Holt include:

• realigning and improving the existing informal pedestrian crossing
• widening the pavements to shorten the crossing distances
• upgrading the bus stop with accessible kerbs
• installing dropped kerbs and tactile (bumpy pavement)
