That this Area Committee notes a raised pedestrian crossing at the R148 and Kennelsfort Road Upper was agreed in principle in 2016 and needs to be installled as this is a serious hazard for persons in wheelchairs/pushcars/buggies, the physically challenged or are very young, due to the fact that buses, lorries and cars constantly stop on the crossing once the traffic lights at the junction turn red.
At the same location, the yellow box needs to be moved from before the pedestrian crossing (the lane is no longer open to motorised traffic) to the R148 side of the pedestrian crossing as motorised traffic exit at this point from the laneway and parking area, finally motorists coming from Upper Kennelsfort Road need to be warned that traffic may be doing a u-turn ahead as there has been a number of accidents at this junction recently.
