Shawlands - Deanston Drive

Location:

Deanston Drive

Expected Work Start Date:

Wednesday 05 August 2020

Expected Work Completion Date:

Wednesday 12 August 2020

Measure(s):

Deanston Drive - South side of carriageway will be narrowed by 2 metres between Skirving Street and Afton Street.

Purpose:

To allow the widening of the existing footways to enable physical distancing.

To allow queueing areas for local shops.

Detail:

The temporary works will be in place for a minimum period of 10 weeks and will be reviewed in line with the Scottish Government's Covid-19 Framework for Decision Making 'Scotland's Route Map through and out of the crisis'.

Update - 15 September 2020:

Spaces for People infrastructure is temporary and as such, agile. Measures can be mobilised relatively quickly as the need arises, and adjustments made to existing infrastructure after a period of review.

Following a monitoring period at this location, the temporary infrastructure has been removed.

Update: 16 September 2021

Following an independent review which recommended the retention of those Spaces for People measures that could realise long term sustainability and active travel benefits - temporary footway widening infrastructure across neighbourhoods will not be reinstated at this location/made permanent.
