There’s been discussion in the media of the Milton Road/Elizabeth Way roundabout in Cambridge.
This is a normal signalised roundabout, with a new cyclops junction being delivered nearby on Milton Road – part of our project to improve people’s journeys.
Before we delivered improvements to the roundabout, there were no dedicated pedestrian crossing or cycling facilities here. This created uncertainty for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists with 18 injury collisions recorded at the junction over the last five years.
The revised roundabout – designed following national guidance and public consultation – provides dedicated crossing points to improve safety for all road users alongside new cycling links to encourage more people to walk, wheel or cycle around the city.
