Heavitree and Whipton Active Streets Trial

Devon County Council are to introduce the Heavitree and Whipton Active Streets trial scheme. This will involve the installation of:

  • Physical modal filters, i.e., planters or bollards, which prevent the passage of all motor vehicles; and
  • Bus gates, which use signage to prohibit vehicular traffic (except for buses, emergency vehicles and certain other exempt classes of vehicle).

These will be installed at key locations across the Heavitree and Whipton area. The aim is to reduce traffic on residential streets and support local people who want to walk, wheel, scoot or cycle. All properties within the area will remain accessible by car, but residents may need to use different routes for some journeys. More information on the dedicated scheme website.

Please be aware that Devon County Council are running two consultation events in September:

  • Tuesday 12th September at Whipton Community Hall, Pinhoe Road, EX4 8AF, 4:30pm – 6:30pm
  • Thursday 14th September at St Mark’s Church Hall, Pinhoe Road, EX4 7HU, 4:30pm – 6:30pm
