'We are proposing not to take forward the current planned cycle lane at this time'
The proposals, which included the two-way route between Canal Street and Gilmour Street stations and so-called ‘floating bus stops’, sparked outrage among town centre traders.
It has since been confirmed in a report set to be discussed at Wednesday’s leadership board that after feedback from businesses and communities, the regeneration proposal is “not in a position to move to the construction phase”. “Given the widespread opposition to these plans, it is crucial that local businesses and residents are fully involved in any future plans from the beginning and that any new schemes are developed with economic and safety issues fully considered and taken into account.”
“Hopefully full consultation with residents and businesses can find a way forward to develop suitable proposals for a bus partnership which will enhance Causeyside Street as a great place to live, work and shop.”He added: “The cycle path proposals would have killed off shops in Causeyside Street, so this move is to be welcomed.”
