Hills Road is a major road in Cambridge, connecting the city centre with Cambridge Station, Addenbrooke’s and the Cambridge Biomedical Campus.
The section of Hills Road being considered is from the Lensfield Road / Gonville Place junction to Hills Road Sixth Form College / Purbeck Road.
Key benefits and potential improvements:
- Increase walking and cycling levels with better active travel infrastructure
- Improve pedestrian and cycle safety along Hills Road and at signal-controlled side road junctions
- Maintain or improve the appearance of our streets
- Maintain or reduce bus journey times wherever possible, improve waiting areas and make it easier to get on and off buses
- Reduce the conflict between local businesses (for example, kerbside parking for servicing and delivery) and the safe movement of pedestrians and cyclists
- Support the shift from private cars to public and active means of transport
- Support the substantial planned growth in Cambridge by providing safe and attractive active travel connections between new and existing communities and services.
