Newquay, Barrowfields: Pedestrian Improvements | Let's Talk Cornwall
Cornwall Council are proposing to build a new footpath along the grass verge between the access road to the Glendorgal Hotel and the junction with Manewas Way, near Lusty Glaze Road. As part of this work, they will also refresh the existing "No Waiting at Any Time" road markings.
It is also planned to improve two pedestrian crossings. These upgrades will include tactile paving and other safety features. One crossing is on Manewas Way, and the other is on Lusty Glaze Road, which would help  link the two existing footpaths, making it easier and safer for people to cross.
