The central hatching will visually narrow the carriageway along its entire length and will be incombination with warning or any other appropriate signage on the approach to a roundabout.The introduction of the carriageway markings (central hatching) along the entire length of the road will physically and visually narrow the carriageway width in order to reduce vehicularspeed. The scheme forms part of, and builds on, an area wide programme to implement these types of measures across the Cwmbran ‘New Town’ area.See prioritisation tool.Speed monitoring loops have been deployed on this road to collect ‘Before’ speed/volume data and similar ‘After’ monitoring will be undertaken approximately 1-2 months after schemecompletion.Vale of Glamorgan Works Road Safety £60k £60k 0 £60k 0 £60k April 2013 October 2013Footway improvements. Very narrow section of footway approximately 100m long that runs adjacent to a principal road between a school and train station. Insufficient width to allow twopeople to pass side by side safely. Scheme will remove central hatching on carriageway to enable the footway to be widened.As per prioritisation tool. Casualty reduction. First year rate of return 0.50.Five collisions (1 serious). As per prioritisation tool. Collision information attached.Vehicle speeds/volume and number of personal injury collisions.RCT Works Road Safety £100k £100k 0 £100k 0 £100k April 2013 March 2014Provide street lighting; Change speed limit from National to 50 mph; Provide warning signs; Remove vegetation to improve visibilityCasualty reduction. 1 fatal pedestrian collision, 1 slight and 1 serious vehicle to vehicle collision all occurring at night. The scheme will improve visibility particularly in the vicinity of afootpath which crosses the bypass and on the approaches to a roundabout.See prioritisation tool. Accident casualty statistics indicate a recurrent accident cause of visibility.Before monitoring: Collision analysis and speed and volume surveys.After monitoring: RSA 3 and 4, speed and volume surveys, collision analysis, site monitoringTorfaen Works Road Safety £25k £25k 0 £25k 0 £25k October 2013 February 2014This scheme will provide central hatch carriageway markings along the length of this road, which when constructed as part of Cwmbran as a new town in the late 1950-1970’s, provided aroad with generous carriageway width similar to many residential areas throughout Cwmbran. The central hatching and pedestrian refuges will physically and visually narrow thecarriageway along its entire length. The scheme forms part of, and builds on, an area wide programme to implement these types of measures across the Cwmbran ‘New Town’ area.The introduction of the carriageway markings (central hatching) along the entire length of the road will physically and visually narrow the carriageway width in order to reduce vehicularspeed, provide safe crossing points across the carriageway to local attractions which include a boating lake, golf course and a building of historic interest.The application of the markings will also ensure that the road layout/markings are consistent or of a similar nature to that of other local distributor roads in the area.This scheme will also be linked to a SRiC scheme planned in 2013/14 to provide new and improve existing walking and cycling routes in this area.See prioritisation tool.Yes, speed monitoring loops have been deployed on this road to collect ‘Before’ speed/volume data and similar ‘After’ monitoring will be undertaken approximately 1-2 months afterscheme completion.Cardiff Works Road Safety £220k £220k 0 £220k 0 £220k April 2013 January 2013This scheme will improve road safety for all highway users at the Cathedral Road / Cowbridge Road East junction. The main aim is to reduce vehicle to vehicle collisions but the scheme isalso aimed at improving road safety for vulnerable pedestrians and cyclists. The scheme will implement improved pedestrian crossing facilities and an additional stage for the right turnmanoeuvres.The key aim of this scheme is to reduce the number of injury. The existing collision rate at the junction is 26 with the potential and expected reduction in collisions being 46% with aRoSPA reduction factor of 0.22. The anticipated first year rate of return is 24. The scheme will also make it easier (as well as safer) for pedestrians and cyclists to travel through the
