Glasgow City Council has shared its planned designs for a series of prominent road junctions across the west end as part of an initiative to boost active travel.
The online consultation shares developed designs for Yorkhill and Kelvingrove, specifically Kelvinhaugh Street, Derby Street, Parkgrove Terrace and Kelvingrove Street, says Urban Realm.
They show how upgraded pavements, step-free crossings and segregated cycle paths could lay the groundwork for future walking, wheeling and cycling in the area.
Cllr Angus Millar commented: “We want to provide greater opportunities to move about Glasgow safely, and by establishing a City Network of active travel routes we can connect communities across the city.
“Connecting Yorkhill and Kelvingrove will improve the environment for walking, wheeling and cycling, and link to existing active travel routes such as those in Kelvingrove Park and the Govan-Partick Bridge. The project will also encourage more sustainable travel by improving connectivity with Exhibition Centre train station.”
Consultations have concluded for phase one of the project, with construction due to start on Radnor Street, Haugh Road, Yorkhill Street and Sandyford Street later this year.
Public feedback on the latest phasing is invited through 27 April.
