Raploch Street Design: Launch Event

Thanks very much to everyone who attended our Launch Session on Thursday 6th September.

Over 100 people came speak to us about Raploch Road and Drip Road, what issues they'd like us to address and how they would like to improve them.

All comments and ideas were recorded on maps and in survey sheets. Some of them were even written directly on the pavement...

Children from all three schools in the area joined us in the afternoon, to tell us how they feel about the road. Many suggested ideas to make the street safer for them.

We are still recording comments and ideas, which is why we have left surveys for residents to pick up and fill in at Raploch Community Partnership, on the campus. You can also add comments on this website ( https://walkcyclelivestirlingmap.commonplace.is/ ) until the 30th of September. Your input will be used to shape our designs, as well as future discussions and events, to make sure they work for you.

What's next?

Our next event will be a practical model kit design workshop in November, where you will have the chance to redesign the area by using props and miniature models. Everyone is welcome to attend; more details will be published on this blog. In the meantime, watch this space for more local events, including led walks, art workshops, film screenings and more. Please sign up to this site and keep checking it for details, or contact irene.tortajada@sustrans.org.uk for more information.
