TRAFFIC restrictions and temporary road closures are being considered across Moray to ensure there is enough space for safe use by the public.
Changes could mean street closures, extra signage, pavement markings and other physical distancing aids that might be required to ensure a safe transition from full lockdown.
Moray Council is urging all business owners in the area to complete a short questionnaire to help with its planning. The council says it is vital all businesses with a street frontage or access give feedback so the new arrangements can suit as many as possible.
A list of consultation questions can be downloaded via this link http://www.moray.gov.uk/downloads/file133159.docx and answers should be emailed to covid19@moray.gov.uk as soon as possible.
The council will be using the information in its planning from next week.
A spokesman said: "The council is planning to support businesses as best we can as the coronavirus restrictions are relaxed, in terms of enabling space for social distancing and safe operation.
"We appreciate this is a tight turnaround, but we want to work as fast as possible to get things ready.”
Other council areas have already put these Spaces for People arrangements in place, and more info is available HERE.
