Totnes Town Council was asked by Devon County Council to indicate how the town centre could be made safer during the COVID-19 pandemic. After much discussion, the recommendation was for a temporary 4-hours-a-week closure of the road on Saturday mornings 9am-1pm. Devon County Council as the Highway authority has made the decision to temporarily close Upper Fore Street, High Street and the Narrows on this weekly basis until 5th December 2020 (currently). This measure is to allow more room for pedestrians to move around the town and between shops without having to avoid vehicles and crowds on narrow pavements.
Totnes Town Council would like to understand the effectiveness of this measure and consult on whether it should be extended, and so has asked Devon Communities Together to carry out this independent survey. You can fill out the short survey online here: www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/totnestown
