It had been hoped that the consultation on the junction changes which will enable the partial closure of through traffic at Boots Corner would happen in January this year.
The County Council have said that consultation is slightly behind schedule as some of the junctions have thrown up 'unexpected
issues'.
They are currently planning to consult on the changes in
March and will be holding an exhibition in the town centre for a least a
week, possibly two.
Details of these
exhibitions will be widely publicised and they will offer an opportunity for
residents to come and look at the proposals in details and ask questions or
relay comments in addition to the other formal methods of responding to the
consultation.
Meanwhile I am in regular contact with local residents regarding their concerns, most frustratingly at the moment is the lack of information about the impact of displaced traffic around Cheltenham.
Officers at the County and Borough Councils are still working on the details of the proposals but that shouldn't stop information being easily available for local residents to see how the impact of displaced traffic has been assessed.
