Description

Summary: The main aims of the scheme are to improve footways, bus stops, disabled parking, the facilities for loading/unloading and uncontrolled crossings in and around the Market Place, Frome, Somerset. The main elements of the scheme include: Disabled bay area: Removal of existing pennant kerb and footway to form new on-street disabled space to the east of west bound bus stop. Bus stop lay-bys: Improve layout so that one bus can stop at the bus platform while a second bus can park using the bus lane avoiding traffic congestion. Existing railings on small retaining wall on the southern side of Market Place to be retained and repainted. Existing footways will be narrowed at each side of the road and resurfaced using existing paving slabs to match existing pattern or replacement blocks if necessary, similar to 'Marshalls Tegula' pennant slabs and specified laying pattern. Pedestrian crossings and 'central splitter' island: Two new uncontrolled pedestrian crossings, one being located at the bottom of Bath Street and the other linking Boyle Cross and George Hotel together with associated white lining, tactile paving and buff colour surfacing (Mastertint). Improvement to existing pedestrian crossing in King Street with new buff colour surfacing (Mastertint) and flush kerb line demarcation. Over-runnable central splitter island with associated white lining and buff colour surfacing (Mastertint). Footway from bus stops to Cork Street and junction of Stony Street and Market Place will be resurfaced using Marshalls Tegula Pennant Grey slabs matching the existing pattern in the area of the bus stops. Proposed buildout for the new pedestrian crossing outside the George and the new footway realignment between the 'loading bay only' area and the northern bus lay-by will be of the same materials. Cork Street: Removal of existing guard railings and replacement with bollards, the existing Frome emblems being removed to storage. Footway works will include the removal of a portion of the existing footway to form 1 No. disabled bay near the George entrance and to accommodate a new extended delivery bay between the crossing point and the bus stop. Two additional parking spaces along Cork Street, together with dropped kerbing to allow access from carriageway onto footway. Stony Street: Resurfacing of existing footway to be replaced with Welsh Pennant paving and setts with conservation kerbing. New buildout adjacent to Stony Street junction and infill the police parking bay which is being removed. Introduction of new road gullies as necessary.
