Hills Road and Cambridge Biomedical Campus

In 2021, we improved access for people walking, cycling and using public transport.  

The project linked with the earlier Hills Road cycleway scheme between Cherry Hinton Road and the Long Road/Queen Edith’s Way junction. It delivered:

  • Safer crossings at the junction of Hills Road, Long Road and Queen Edith’s Way and dedicated raised cycle lanes as well as two new bus stops
  • A new toucan crossing on Hills Road at the Addenbrooke’s roundabout
  • Two floating bus stops, with lead-in cycle lanes on the approach to the junction and a 9m deep advanced stop box
  • An outbound lead-in cycle lane located between the two traffic lanes to help the majority of cyclists reach the middle and right side of the advanced stop box, then make the diagonal movement to the west side of Hills Road (south of the junction) or the right turn into Long Road
