15.1 Turkey Street Station and Conservation Area
Develop a comprehensive street design scheme which - through public realm enhancements - helps to enhance local distinctiveness and contribute to an improved sense of security whilst still providing for traffi c movements. This scheme should include:
- public realm enhancements at the junction of Turkey Street and Teal Close to announce the station entrance (e.g. by locating new signage on views along Turkey Street) and make the most of Turkey Brook;
- a scheme to improve pedestrian and cycle provision on the approach from the west. This could include localised widening of the pavement on the northern side of Turkey Street and introducing a priority one-way system. This scheme should include cutting back and maintenance of vegetation to maintain clear sightlines;
- creating a new pocket park at the eastern end of the Conservation Area incorporating the existing bridge (or a new one), so enhancing not only amenity but also wayfi nding; and
- investigating the potential to accommodate commuter parking within the green area adjacent to the railway line, and restricting parking at the entrance to the pocket park.
