Riverside path consultation
In November 2024, we invited residents to have their say on detailed designs to improve the riverside path between Jubilee Terrace and Scarborough Bridge.
This followed a previous consultation in December 2022 and January 2023 which sought to gather your views and understand your priorities for improvements to the path.
We've been carrying out work to design a scheme that reflects the priorities of local residents whilst also meeting the budget and requirements of the funding. Key features of the design include a separate path for cyclists, formalised blue badge parking, upgraded lighting and improved flood resilience.
This work has also included identifying areas for flood compensation and carrying out structural inspections of the area to ensure the improvements are long lasting.
Residents were invited to comment online, or via paper surveys, and to attend engagement events to speak to the project team and give feedback on the proposals.
The consultation closed on 1 December 2024.
Riverside Path Decisions
Feedback from the consultation was included in a report to the Executive Member for Transport during March 2025 and decisions were made to:
- Proceed to detailed design of the proposed Riverside Path scheme but delay construction until the dependency on the Riverside Embankment Stability issue identified during the project feasibility stage is fully determined and resolved.
- Proceed with the advertisement of proposed amendments to Traffic Regulation Orders regarding the installation of double yellow lines on Jubilee Terrace and the prohibition of cycle movements on the access ramp linking Aldborough Way and the Riverside Path
