Issue details
Variation to Annual Plan 2021/22 – Critical Friend Reviews for St Owen Street cycleway contraflow and Widemarsh Street kerb schemes.
There is a desire for critical friend reviews
to be procured and undertaken for the developed design of the St
Owen Street contraflow cycleway scheme and the proposed works for
the kerbs in Widemarsh Street.
The St Owen Street scheme proposes the introduction of a segregated
contraflow cycle lane along the length of St Owen Street, Hereford,
a number of uncontrolled crossings with footway build outs,
together with a new signal controlled crossing at the Bath Street
end of St Owen Street. Feedback from consultations, together with
design reviews and safety audits have contributed to the
development of the design over this period.
An evaluation has been undertaken of the previously completed
refurbishment of Widemarsh Street as part of the High Town design
review associated with the Hereford City Centre Improvements
(HCCI). This has developed options for further enhancements to the
kerbs in this area.
Procurement of consultants to undertake the critical friend reviews
will be undertaken directly by the council in accordance with the
council’s procurement rules.
