Emsworth Improvements

Supporting healthier lifestyle choices, making it safe and pleasant for all.

Last update: September 2024

Scheme Overview

The proposed scheme seeks to make a number of safety improvements along Victoria Road near Emsworth Primary School for pupils accessing the school and mobility-impaired users. The works will also include improvements to the entrance of Bridge Road from the A259.

The works will be undertaken in two phases, detailed below.

Phase 1
Bridge Road:

  • Narrowing of the bellmouth;
  • Improvements to drainage;
  • Footway resurfacing.

Victoria Road:

  • Footway widening;
  • Relocation of a lighting column;
  • Relocation of a telegraph pole, which has already been completed.

Phase 2

Works will be undertaken to enhance safety for pupils and mobility-impaired users by improving the crossing points to ensure safe access to the school for all users.

Phase 1 works are expected to start Winter 2024, followed by phase 2 in summer 2025.

Funding Arrangements

Funding for the transport capital delivery schemes is separate from the County Council’s revenue budget and savings proposals. In the majority of cases funding comes from external grants and / or Section 106 contribution from developers. This funding usually has conditions that strictly control on how, where and when it can be spent.
