The original point was that access to and from the new stadium development might be problematical given the reliance on the Kingsway. Seems to me still to be a valid point of view. Am I wrong?

It’s an unknown no formal plans submitted to show what development would be carried out on access roads.

ICT & St J both reliant on the A9, much busier trunk road

Amazing what well sequenced traffic lights can do to control flow of traffic off the A9 and into McDairmid. Just as amazing what poorly sequenced traffic lights can do to mess up flow from the same road into The Caledonian Stadium (although that might be fixed now).

Do explain how a new well structured roundabout will be built to allow a new stadium for DFC. If you are going to propose a solution it helps us to visualise what you are thinking.

I'm neither a roads engineer nor town planner. Neither do I believe for one minute that discussion is relevant.

However, from my amateur stand point, you get traffic off the arterial route - like at McDairmid - then manage it from there. Kingsway is a dual carriageway, do what they did at Balado for T In The Park and extend the slip road by splitting the traffic well in advance of the new slip road, football traffic only in left lane and through traffic in right. Sequence the lights at the Myrekirk Circle intelligently to allow the traffic travelling east to west to flow into the filter lane.

It is valid.

[dayster]

It is valid.

Of course it is. All viewpoints in a planning consultation are valid and must be considered. I could raise a concern that the use of the land reduced the space available for UFOs to land in The north west of the city it may be a valid concern to me*

*its not, there is ample room for UFOs in the surrounding area

Good we agree, Islays viewpoint is valid.

Dont get sucked into thinking there will be a new stadium.
