Motor vehicles could be banned from using the Trencreek and Chapel level crossings to "facilitate improvements" to the Newquay rail line.
Cormac, on behalf of Cornwall Council, is inviting comments on plans to install new restrictions at the crossings.
The consultation document states that the scheme supports proposals to close the Trencreek and Chapel railway crossings to facilitate improvements to the Newquay Railway line. Any vehicle restrictions at the crossings will not come into effect until the Newquay Strategic Route road is opened, which is currently scheduled for Spring next year.
It explains that the objective of the proposals at Trencreek is to provide the necessary turning areas for delivery and refuse vehicles accessing properties along Trencreek Road. By implementing parking restrictions at the entrance to Carpmael Avenue and Crossing Mews, vehicles will be able to use these side roads to turn around and exit Trencreek Road without crossing the railway line.
Similar restrictions are proposed for Chapel, with the addition of a new turning head at the farm/field entrance on the south side of the level crossing to allow cars to turn around and exit Chapel Road without crossing the railway line.
The consultation is open until 4th October.
