We note that a new Wet Dock Crossing would facilitate access to the Island site and provide for through traffic, allowing for calming of the Star Lane Gyratory. We support the calming of the gyratory and its opportunities for linking the town to the Waterfront and encouraging the enhancement of heritage assets. However, care will be needed with the design of the crossing as it passes through the Island Site and Wet Dock conservation area. We would welcome further discussion of the scheme and recommend recognition of the heritage issues in the supporting text.
