Plans for new Bute Park bridge opposed

"Proposals to build a new access gate and bridge to Bute Park will be opposed at a public debate hosted by Cardiff University’s Professor Kevin Morgan.

The access bridge, opposite Corbett Road, is to be 9 metres wide to enable articulated lorries to pass each other and a new, wide road will then continue over the feeder canal and down into the park.

A promotional brochure created by the Council mentions ‘paths… widened to 4m to accommodate larger vehicles,’ but with no kerbed pavement there are concerns that lorries would pass uncomfortably close to pedestrians."
