PROPOSED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT AND PEDESTIAN CROSSING SCHEME, ROTHES

It is proposed to hold a public exhibition in Rothes Parish Church Hall on Wednesday 9th September 3pm -8pm, and Thursday 10th September 9am - 1pm

The exhibition will be a chance for residents and businesses to comment on proposals for the introduction of a pelican crossing in Rothes High Street along with waiting restrictions in High Street and New Street to alleviate congestion.

There are two different options for the crossing location and traffic engineers will be available to discuss the proposals at the exhibition. The Traffic section of Moray Council is keen to hear your views before a final decision is made on the proposals.
