That the Chief Executive, notwithstanding that congestion has naturally increased and will continue to increase, carries out a full road safety and traffic flow audit of the Newcastle Road and in particular the following areas: - The stretch southwards from Lucan Harriers car park to the junction with the L1030, which is subject to bus lane being used by vehicles to slip ahead of cars queuing in the correct lane and also cars leapfrogging the longer queue to get ahead of other vehicles by using the yellow box; - The junction with Hillcrest where an optimum solution has yet to be found in terms of evening traffic being able to turn right into the estate without blocking the road and facilitating exit from the estate without clogging up the Newcastle Road/N4 junction thus trapping cars for multiple traffic light sequences at Esker church on occasion; and reports back to members with proposed solutions to ensure optimum flow and safe use of this busy corridor.
