4 boxes showing the proposed design for continuous pavement, pedestrian and cycling crossing, segregated cycling and Tarvit Street closures.

Cycling improvements

  • Segregated cycle track on Home Street
  • Ban on 'through traffic' on Tarvit Street except for cycles 
  • Segregated cycling on Brougham Street
  • Contraflow cycling allowed on Valleyfield Street and Glengyle Terrace

Walking improvements

  • Pavement widening on sections of Lochrin Place and Leven Street
  • Continuous pavements and pavement buildouts along the route to make it easier and safer for anyone walking or wheeling
  • Relocating the pedestrian crossings at Lochrin Terrace and Home Street junction to spread crossings more evenly along the corridor.
  • Pedestrianising Tarvit Street, next to the King’s Theatre

Creating a more pleasant environment where you’ll want to spend time

  • Installing features like seating and bike parking along the route
  • Providing better access to and from shops and schools within the area
  • Improving pavements and access outside the King’s Theatre

Road resurfacing

  • Brougham Street and Brougham Place - work is already underway
  • Gilmore Place - later in 2025

Spaces for loading

  • designated loading spaces are important for local businesses and we have tried to keep any changes to a minimum
  • where we're recommending a change to support other improvements on the route, we'll aim to create new spaces nearby
