  • Potternewton Lane/Harehills Lane Junction Improvement Scheme
    Agenda Item: 3485/2014 Report author: Sabby Khaira Tel: 0113 2475381 Report to the Chief Officer (Highways and Transportation) Date: 28 October 2014 Subject: Potternewton Lane/Harehills Lane Junction Improvement Scheme Capital Scheme Number: 32154 Are specific electoral Wards affected? Yes No If relevant, name(s) of Ward(s): Chapel Allerton Are there implications for equality and diversity and cohesion and Yes No integration? Is the decision eligible for Call-In? Yes No Does the report contain confidential or exempt information? Yes No If relevant, Access to Information Procedure Rule number: Appendix number: Summary of main issues 1. This scheme meets the Best Council objectives of improving roads. The scheme contributes to building a child friendly city by providing streets that are safe for children to use. The scheme also tackles some of the barriers to getting people active, allowing them to walk to use local businesses, community facilities, and healthcare. 2. There is a demand for a contolled pedestrian crossing where Potternewton Lane meets Harrogate Road. This crossing is on the school route for Chapel Allerton Primary School and is located close to Tech North which accommodates many community facilities. Currently there is a small traffic island in the centre of Potternewton Lane that is used by over 450 pedestrians a day. The existing facility does not meet current standards and this scheme will address the concerns of the local community by providing a safe controlled pedestrian crossing. 3. Authority is now being sought to implement improvements to the junction and pedestrian crossing facilities. The proposed include:- A new signalised staggered pedestrian crossing and island (see EP-732154-01- 01) to improve the crossing facilities on Potternewton Lane and the addition of an advanced stop line and advisory cycle lane to allow cyclists easier movements through the junction.
