In 2020, we worked with the county council on experimental traffic management schemes to make it easier for people to walk and cycle during the pandemic. 

Two consultations were held to find out what people thought of the measures, and all were made permanent by the county council. The schemes undertaken were:

Silver Street Extending the bus gate to operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week 24 August 2020
Luard Road Prohibiting the driving of motor vehicles on a short section west of the Luard Close junction 24 August 2020
