WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR INFRASTRUCTURE BY DEPUTY M. TADIER OF ST. BRELADE
QUESTION SUBMITTED ON MONDAY 24th MAY 2021 ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 1st JUNE 2021
Question
Will the Minister state what planned infrastructure work, if any, is scheduled in St. Brelade in each of the following categories of work, along with a target delivery date in each case –
- traffic calming measures;
- new pedestrian or cycle footpaths; and
- dealing with the road narrowing on the B25 near the B43 intersection (between Red Houses and La Haule Slip)?
Answer
(a) The following traffic calming measures are scheduled or under construction in the Parish of St Brelade:
• A toucan (shared pedestrian and cyclists) crossing at the junction of the Railway Walk with Rue de Pont Marquet (B25) (under construction)
• Raised table crossings at La Moye (programmed summer 2021)
• A raised table zebra crossing on La Route Orange outside Les Creux and Clos Orange due to be constructed, along with a carriageway resurfacing, (programmed summer 2021)
(b) The following new pedestrian or cycle footpaths have been completed, scheduled or under construction in the Parish of St Brelade:
• Various improvements to the roadside pavements on Route des Quennevais between Rue Carree and the Roberts Garage funded from a planning obligation agreement. (Completed)
• Footpath widening Route des Genets (completed Spring 2021)
• Pont Marquet Crossing (under construction)
• La Moye – See Above (programmed summer 2021)
• Footpath refurbishment between La Braye and El Tico (project under development)
• Cycle path improvements for St Aubin's Bay promenade and railway walk (project under development)
• Plans to create more space for walking and cycling on the St Aubin promenade at the pinch point opposite Le Haule Hill. (feasibility study completed, and scheme awaiting allocation of funding prior to implementation in 2022)
- Regarding the road narrowing on the B25 near the B43 intersection between Red Houses and La Haule Slip:
Addressing the pinch point at the top of Le Mont au Roux was considered by the Infrastructure, Housing and Environment Department Road Safety Review Panel. The Panel recognised the issue and considering all the factors, it was felt appropriate to remove the centreline over a short distance to raise awareness of the narrowing. It is intended to remove the centreline as soon as it can be programmed into this year's work. There are no plans to widen the road at any point along the B25.
