This consultation closed in 2020.
We’re developing plans to make it easier and safer for people to shop local in their neighbourhoods. We’re using the same approach in district shopping centres as we have in the city centre. A number of social distancing measures are going to be introduced into busy local shopping centres to help people access their local shops safely and to meet the rising demand for better walking and cycling facilities in neighbourhoods, as well as improving public transport links to the city.Using a ‘street ladder’ approach, measures will be installed to manage the flow of people walking and queueing at local shopping centres including the introduction of one-way pedestrian systems and markings on the ground to indicate the recommended physical distance between people, walkways and queuing areas. Initially temporary materials such as cones and barriers will be used, with the view to more permanent material to be installed following input from local councillors, residents and community groups.
