All bus stops and bus stops will operate as normal. In addition some existing footways may be reallocated as cycleways permitting their use by cyclists if this occurs they will be signed accordingly.

These traffic measures are undertaken under “the Act” and in conjunction with additional safety improvements, are funded by national government as part of the response to the Covid-19 situation, designed to allow people more space to social distance as people move around the town centre.

Essex Highways will be replacing some of the existing temporary measures with more aesthetically pleasing semi-permanent measures including barriers, signs and cones, on routes in the town centre from 11/08/2020. The above restrictions may be temporarily removed overnight whilst works take place to facilitate the installation of these measures. The traffic measures under this notice may stay in force for 18 months. During this period of time a decision will be taken as to whether to make these measures permanent at this point a full public consultation will be undertaken.
