Rossland Crescent Access<br />

• A further analysis has been undertaken based on the principle of providing vehicle access to<br />

the village centre through Rossland Crescent. The Linsig analysis clearly demonstrates the<br />

signal controlled junction with Ferry Road / Greenock Road will operate well within capacity.<br />

• The Transport <strong>Assessment</strong> recognises further consultation with <strong>Renfrewshire</strong> <strong>Council</strong> is<br />

required regarding the feasibility of promoting a vehicular link from Rossland Crescent. JMP<br />

would consider the aim of these discussions should be to agree a road layout that adopts the<br />

principles of Designing Streets, discourages excessive volumes of traffic and provides a key<br />

walking and cycling link to the village centre.<br />

7.4 In summary, the Transport <strong>Assessment</strong> concludes that the proposed village centre development<br />

will be well served by sustainable transport and can be integrated with the existing Bishopton<br />

Village. The Transport <strong>Assessment</strong> also concludes that the residual increase in traffic generated by<br />

a 6,000m 2 foodstore can be accommodated by the majority of the existing local road network and,<br />

if required, can be mitigated at the A8 Greenock Road / Station Road junction.<br />
