The local authority is installing a shared cycleway/footpath, new crossings, bike racks and service road outside the shops.

WCC wants to "improve connectivity and enhance the experience for pedestrians, cyclists and business users" in the area.

This as well as making the area more attractive with "material enhancements outside the retail/commercial area while preserving as many parking bays as possible".
