New crossing by Gatley Station

We’ll be getting a new pedestrian crossing outside Gatley Station sometime in the next year.

The old crossing over Gatley Road will be replaced with a Puffin Crossing.

Although the details are yet to be finalised, we’re hoping to get, at the request of Pam King, improved lighting under the railway bridge.

Other planned safety improvements include a widening of the pavement by Springfield Road and an anti-skid surface approaching the lights.

All this is subject to some revision – I’ll pass on more details when I have them.

Whilst the lights are being done under the railway bridge could something be done to stop the pigeons from nesting under the bridge as well ?

Unfortunately,the bridge itself is the property and responsibility of Network Rail, not the Council. Changes to the bridge would have to be done by them.
