ROADS officials are recommending that one-way traffic be introduced on two streets in upper Gourock.
They are urging Inverclyde councillors to consult the public on proposals for Kirn Drive and Staffa Street.
It follows a detailed study carried out by traffic consultants.
Officials state: “The [consultants’] report finds Kirn Drive and Staffa Street could be turned one-way without significant adverse impact on the wider road network.
“It also notes that speeds on one-way roads are likely to increase as drivers know that they will not meet vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.”
As a result, traffic calming would be included in the project.
The report continues: “Following consideration of the report findings, the Roads Service recommend that a TRO [traffic regulation order] be promoted to make Kirn Drive one-way westbound between Arran Road and Divert Road as well as Staffa Street southbound between Ivy Crescent and Kingsway East.”
Councillors will consider the request to carry out consultation at a meeting on 14 March.
