104 survey responses were received. 52% of surveys received were not supportive of the design. The objections focused on the principle of the scheme (to encourage people to walk, wheel and cycle more), the cost, the possible loss of parking and the design worsening the levels of congestion currently experienced in the town. Some of the objections felt that the proposed concept design did not do enough to help cyclists and that the designs should be more radical. A report went to Oban Lorn and Isles Area Committee on 12 June 2024 where Member agreed that they were unable support the project in its current form. The project has been put on hold until additional external funding can be secured to review and redesign this project into a design that could be supported by the community.
