Rayleigh Town Centre Area Action Plan - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 25394

Received: 19/01/2010

Respondent: Disabled Christians Fellowship

Representation Summary:

Loading, or more accurately unloading bays, should be made similar to the lay-by for buses outside the Library.

1. Outside the former 'Post Office' now Postal Sorting Office and
2. Outside 'The Roebuck' Public House (not exclusively for them).

I am sure these would be used extensively, reduce the problem of vehicles parking part way on the footpaths and still allow a lot of cars, smaller vans to pass in both directions at the same time, allowing better flow of traffic.

Eastwood Road

A guard-rail should be placed on the footpath on Eastwood Road outside shops:

Sweet Memories - 2A Eastwood Road
Bliss (Ladies hairdressers) - 2B Eastwood Road
Rita's Separates - 2C Eastwood Road
Quality Kleen Dry Cleaners - 2D Eastwood Road

Near to the pedestrian crossing.

The slope/camber of the pavement is steep towards the road.
