* provision of two lifts, one at each end of the proposed elevated walkway;

* permanent closure and demolition of an existing footbridge ramp;

* permanent or temporary closure of sections of the existing footpath, footbridge and carriageway;

* conversion of sections of the area underneath the existing footbridge ramp into footpath, landscape area and cycle parking area;

* conversion of a section of the existing footpath into a planter; and,

* ancillary works such as associated ground level works, landscaping, drainage and electrical and mechanical works.
