No options assessment has yet been carried out for the Wet Dock Crossing route, nor public consultation undertaken on the need for a crossing and potential routes. The Highway Authority recognises the aspiration for a crossing in the Local Transport Plan but is not currently promoting the scheme. Therefore, it does not require any particular route option to be safeguarded. Regarding the delivery of a Wet Dock Crossing/Star Lane gyratory, the County Council is committed to considering how the Waterfront Transport Study can be implemented, but decisions about the highway network will rest with the County Council as Highway Authority.
