People are being urged to have their says on plans to overhaul roads.

The Pellon Routes to Schools project is aimed at making it easier and safer for people of all ages to walk, cycle, rest and play on routes around schools in the area.

It particularly applies to trips to and from schools including Ling Bob Junior Infant and Nursery School, and Christ Church Pellon Primary School.

Plans have been drawn up for six locations around Rye Lane and Highroad Well Lane.

They include junction improvements, pedestrian crossings, narrowing of vehicle lanes, traffic calming and footway widening.

People are now being asked to share their thoughts on the proposals to help shape their further development.
