Thank you to everyone who took part in our recent Yate travel survey.&nbsp;We received comments and suggestions from more than 700 residents as well as organisations within the town.&nbsp;Some of the things you have told us include:&nbsp;<ul><li>Speed of traffic in the town is a concern.&nbsp;</li><li>There is a need for safe crossing points.&nbsp;</li><li>Well maintained footways and cycle routes are important. &nbsp;</li></ul>All the feedback we have received is being used to consider what improvements can be made to make it safer and easier for people to walk, wheel (use a wheelchair, mobility scooter or pushchair) or cycle.&nbsp;The next step for the project is to host workshops with members of public to delve further into the issues and opportunities raised.&nbsp;
