00:00Hi, I'm James Conneridge, the Service Directors for Infrastructure and Highways at Peterborough

00:04City Council. We're here today at the Lincoln Road Regeneration Scheme, which is a scheme

00:09that we're looking to improve the public realm along Lincoln Road. As we know, it's a very

00:13vibrant part of the city with great restaurants, shops and cafes, and we want to promote that cafe

00:19culture along the area. As part of that, we're improving the public realm with new paving.

00:24We're also making the paths wider so that the cafes can spill out and have seating better,

00:29and we're also making it a lot safer for walking and cycling by reducing the speed limit

00:34along the road to 20 mile an hour. As part of this, we're also looking at the parking provision

00:39to make it a safe place for people to park, but also safe for pedestrians when using the scheme.

00:45We're hoping to have this all completed by spring 2026, but anything we can do to bring this forward,

00:51we will do, obviously. We're also committed to giving you regular updates throughout the scheme

00:56so that you're fully kept up to date of how it's moving forward and that you'll know the exact date

01:01when it will be completed.
