Position of 'Victorian carpet' road patterning/paint

This map shows the positions of all the features, including the road patterning/paint, of the BCR DIY streets proposal as it will go to Sustrans and then onto the OCC. It will then be included in the package the OCC will chew on for awhile before coming back to us with comments/adjustments.

Bear in mind that the amount of road patterning/paint might call for funds beyond our budget, but I'm hoping we can keep them all so as to create an effective string of 'Victorian carpets'. However, if we have to take a few out, I'll have to consider another arrangement.

If this design removed a patterned area you were hoping to have in front of your home, please understand that this particular arrangement allowed for the best symmetry along the length of the street, as well as creating s series of regular-sized 'carpets'. Where possible, the carpets have been positioned to embrace the vertical features and therefore make more convincing 'rooms'.

Please offer comments on this if you like.
