OPTION A - roundabout between Askham Lane and Moor Lane with Moor Lane, Askham Lane and Askham Bryan Lane diverted to connect directly with it.
York's Lib Dem teams in Westfield, Rural West York and Dringhouses & Woodthorpe are asking for your views on proposed improvements to the Askham Lane/Moor Lane/Ring Road junction.
OPTION B- roundabout near the Moor Lane junction with Moor Lane and Askham Bryan Lane diverted to access it directly. A new link road would connect Askham Lane to Moor Lane.
The accident prone stretch of road claimed 2 lives last year with right turning vehicles particularly vulnerable. First though, residents have a choice to make among 3 possible design options. You can have your say by voting in our poll (on the right hand side of the home page) or e-mailing us on info@yorklibdems.org.uk
OPTION C-roundabout near the Moor Lane junction with Moor Lane, Askham Lane and Askham Bryan Lane diverted to link up to this roundabout.
Details will also be available at the Ward Committee meetings.
Local Councillor Steve Galloway, who has waged a 10 year campaign for safety improvements at the junctions, says,
"For me safety comes first and this junction can be a lottery for drivers. I'm delighted that we have been able to invest even more in making Westfield a better and safer place in which to live".
Labour Councillors opposed the safety scheme arguing that the local transport grant money should be spent elsewhere in the City.
