MOVING TOWARDS ONE WAY IN CASTLE STREET
ANGUS Councillors have taken the first step towards the return of a one-way traffic system in Forfar's Castle Street.
Members of the local authority's infrastructure services committee met last week and agreed in principle a one-way system, south-bound, between Victoria Street and Myre Road.
They also approved a public consultation.
Councillors were asked to note the completion of the traffic management review for Forfar town centre and approve a recommendation from Eric Lowson, director of infrastructure services.
In his report which went before the committee he said: "Environmental improvement works were undertaken around the Cross during 2009 and involved temporary traffic management measures for the duration of the works with a south-bound one-way system operating in Castle Street.
"This system proved successful and the Community Council and others considered that such a traffic system could have advantages on a permanent basis."
