Petition Provision of a Designated Medical Drop-Off and Pick-Up Bay on Broad Street
Broad Street Dental Care provides IV sedation to patients. Following treatment, patients require supervised transfer and cannot walk far. Current access creates safety risk, including falls and difficulty accessing transport. A designated drop-off point will improve safety and accessibility.
More details
This request aligns with recognised clinical guidance for IV sedation, which requires patients to be discharged into the care of a responsible adult and transported safely. The current pedestrianisation restricts this, increasing risks such as falls, disorientation, and delayed recovery. A controlled, time-limited medical drop-off/pick-up bay would provide a proportionate solution, improving patient safety and accessibility while maintaining the integrity of Broad Street’s traffic restrictions.
