This will provide a formal crossing point between Appledore Primary School and Anchor Park as well as other amenities in the area. The proposal also includes a new bus shelter at the bus stop, and widening of the existing footpath. However, to ensure good visibility at the crossing, 5 parking spaces on its approach will have to be removed.<\/p>\n<p>The crossing will encourage people, particularly those traveling to the school, to make their journey on foot, reducing local journeys by car and benefiting their health and wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>Funding has been secured from the 4th round of the Active Travel Fund as well as from Section 106 contributions towards a crossing in this location from the Baker Estate development. Devon County Council aim to complete the final design after the public consultation and build the scheme in Spring 2024 (subject to the public consultation results and Cabinet approval).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/devoncc.sharepoint.com\/:b:\/s\/PublicDocs\/Corporate\/EdXQ3AdnL7NCtq-GgWYx4W0BU1eyADOMI2Urx54tF77OLg?e=gHYAnJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here for a plan of the proposal<\/a>, alternatively, it can be seen below.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7620 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/haveyoursay\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2023\/05\/230523-Appledore-Crossing-plan-for-Consultation.png\" alt=\"The map shows a new zebra crossing between Appledore Primary School and Anchor Park, just up hill from Kingsley Avenue.\" width=\"1026\" height=\"685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/haveyoursay\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2023\/05\/230523-Appledore-Crossing-plan-for-Consultation.png 1026w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/haveyoursay\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2023\/05\/230523-Appledore-Crossing-plan-for-Consultation-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/haveyoursay\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2023\/05\/230523-Appledore-Crossing-plan-for-Consultation-800x534.png 800w, https:\/\/www.devon.gov.uk\/haveyoursay\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2023\/05\/230523-Appledore-Crossing-plan-for-Consultation-768x513.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1026px) 100vw, 1026px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Documents<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/devoncc.sharepoint.com\/sites\/PublicDocs\/Corporate\/HaveYourSay\/Forms\/AllItems.aspx?id=%2Fsites%2FPublicDocs%2FCorporate%2FHaveYourSay%2FTransport%2FAppledore%20New%20Zebra%20Crossing%20ATF4%2F2023%20July%20Consultation%20Report%2Epdf&amp;parent=%2Fsites%2FPublicDocs%2FCorporate%2FHaveYourSay%2FTransport%2FAppledore%20New%20Zebra%20Crossing%20ATF4&amp;p=true&amp;ct=1690537614480&amp;or=Outlook%2DBody&amp;cid=A92627E4%2DC57F%2D4BED%2DB0F8%2D3B3757BF5002&amp;ga=1&amp;WSL=1\" rel=\"noopener\">Public Consultation Report<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Accessibility<\/h2>\n<p>We take accessibility seriously and recognise that some of the information presented in the files available on this page may not be fully accessible to someone using assistive technology such as a screen reader.<\/p>\n<p>If you need guidance or an alternative format, email <a href=\"mailto:transportplanning@devon.gov.uk\">transportplanning@devon.gov.uk<\/a> with details of any preferred format and the assistive technology you use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proposed New Zebra Crossing on A386 Appledore, Northam Consultation is now closed.
