Vegetation could be cut back and a pavement made wider as part of plans to make walking and biking to Bailey’s Court Primary School safer.

South Gloucestershire Council is carrying out the consultation after the school created a travel plan.

The school identified several areas of concern including pupils crossing the busy Bradley Stoke Way.

The council says it wants to cut vegetation down on the central island of the Great Meadow roundabout to increase visibility and make crossing the road safer.

They also want to install “a 150mm wide area of raised rib white road markings around the central island”.

Also included in the proposal is a plan for a more connected cycle route to the school.

The consultation states: “Although the area around the school is well served by shared cycle/pedestrian routes, these routes do not link with the school.”

The council says it also wants to increase the size of the footpath on Bailey’s Court Road and alter “the position and radius of the Breaches Gate junction with Baileys Court Road”.
