To be clear, the report deals only with the traffic management options to improve pedestrian access around the park being proposed at the time of the development of the Town Park in 2010 and 2011. In particular the report reviews the safety issues that would need to be addressed due to vehicle reversing movements if bollards were installed in Tunnell Street. It does not consider the final layout implemented by the Parish of St Helier on Tunnell Street, starting in 2012, after the park had opened, or five years later on in September 2015 when the Parish introduced the La Raccouche pedestrian route as an independent scheme.

A copy of the report can now be found on the States of Jersey website at the link below:
