Have your say on junction improvements in Scarborough

North Yorkshire County Council is proposing to install traffic lights at the A171 Scalby Road/Stepney Drive junction, which would synchronise with those at the Scalby Road/Woodlands Drive junction.
The Stepney Drive approach to Scalby Road will also be widened to two lanes, and the Woodlands Drive two-lane approach to Scalby Road will be made longer.
At the A171 Scalby Road/Falsgrave Road junction - or Crown Tavern roundabout - traffic lights will be installed and the road will be widened.

The county council's consultation event takes place today between 2pm and 7pm, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in Stepney Road.
North Yorkshire County Council and Scarborough Borough Council both contributed £150,000 to the project with the majority of the £4 million funding coming from the York, North Yorkshire and East Riding Local Enterprise Partnership.
