Abstract
In Bird Lane designation as a Quiet Lane was considered. However, the high levels and speed of traffic, the perceived risks to non-motorised users, and the lack of other roads to make into a quiet lanes network, meant that designation was not considered an option. A single track with passing places scheme was decided on as the best available option.
