This news story tells the reader that Lumly Avenue may soon become a pedestrian only precinct and publishes an artist’s impression of how the precinct would look.

This is how the planners see the Lumley Road of the future - paved from side to side, with trees, floral tubs, seats and not a car in sight.This is an artist’s impression of the view looking from the Co-op towards Lumley Square.

Half way up where Lumley Avenue joins in, the pedestrian precinct gives way to a service road, delivery vehicles only.
