Yesterday I was asked to approve the final plans for the new junction layout at the Bakers Drove/Redbridge Lane junction on the A3057 Romsey Road through Nursling.
I have done so and in the meeting confirmed the other improvements associated with the junction.
The traffic light jucntion at Horns Drove/Nursling St will also be redesigned and the the traffic lights intelligently linked to one another to ensure traffic moves as freely as possible.
The HCC Highways Team also confirmed that alongside the scheme double yellow lines will be put in place between the two junctions and any highway consideration of the proposed flats and shop on the landrover garage will take into account the need for safe, off street access for both customers and deliveries to the store should it be approved.
I also obtained confirmation that the speed limit on Redbridge Lane will be reduced to 30mph and a new pedestrian crossing, creating a pinch point, will be installed on Redbridge Lane to allow safer access from Fen Meadow to the Millbrook playing fields.
