In January 2024, our executive board approved the final detailed design for the Addenbrooke’s roundabout. The detailed design features significantly widened cycle lanes and footpaths on both sides of the Fendon Road arm.

We are working with Cambridgeshire County Council’s Street Works team to secure a slot to allow Milestone, the contractor, to build the detailed design. We need to fit in with other utilities works in the area and expect to be on site in the summer.

The designs reduce the size of the central island to accommodate the upgraded walking and cycling links, while retaining the width of the lanes in the road for motorised vehicles, with the roundabout being used at all times by emergency services.

The design reflects your consultation feedback, with the reintroduction of the informal crossing point on the Fendon Road arm and an enhanced two stage crossing of the southern arm of the roundabout.

It's intended that the scheme will be implemented by the end of 2024, and on this basis it’s secured additional funding from our partners at the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority.

The consultation feedback report and updated design plans can be found below.
