See Image for a history of the road. Last summer the road was radically redesigned and to stop drivers using it as a rat run. Cars are still allowed to use the road but the redesign gives pedestrians equal access and forces drivers to slow down to a virtual crawl. The redesign has also smartened up the road with the seating on the southern side of the road adjacent to the Pavilion Gardens proving to be popular when the weather is a little drier and warmer.
