The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether it will make an assessment of the possibility of installing a light-controlled pedestrian crossing on the A75 in Springholm, Kirkcudbrightshire.
The answer
The Scottish Executive commissioned Amey Infrastructure Services in November 2004 to carry outan assessment for the provision of a pedestrian crossing on the A75 trunk road throughSpringholm.
The study concluded that, asthe level of pedestrian activity is low and pedestrians are able to cross the roadin relative safety with minimal waiting time, there is no justification at thistime for the provision of a formalised pedestrian crossing. However, the situationat Springholm will be reviewed should additional demand become evident.
