Nottingham City Council is proposing to improve pedestrian and cycling facilities on Top Valley Way and at its junction with Ridge Way and Top Valley Drive.

As part of the proposals Nottingham City Council is inviting residents to view more detailed plans of the changes an exhibition in Tesco, Top Valley from Thursday November 1 – Tuesday November 6.

Residents will also be able to meet the Project Manager, Lyndsey Morrison, at the Your Choice Your Voice Event at Top Valley Community Centre on Wednesday November 7 from 6.30pm until 8.30pm and at the Top Valley Tenants and Residents Association at Top Valley Community Centre on Thursday 15 November from 7.30pm.

The main aim of the scheme is to get rid of the old and unpopular underground subways at the Top Valley Way Island and replace them with new surface level crossings around the roundabout.

There will be a raised zebra crossing on Top Valley Way due to the high number of pedestrians who want to cross here and normal zebra crossings with speed cushions on Ridge Way and on Top Valley Drive to slow vehicles and help keep pedestrians safe.

Nottingham City Council also plans to:

• Fill in the subways and raise the level of pavements around the island so that they are level with the road to help pedestrians to feel safer.

• Install raised kerbs at the existing bus stops on Top Valley Way and Ridge Way so it is easier for passengers to get on and off their services.

• Install on-road cycle lanes on Top Valley Way to connect to the roundabout and feed into Top Valley Drive and Ridge Way.

• Resurface the pavements

• Landscape the area
