Project Details
The junctions have seen refurbishment and modernisation of the traffic signals with new technology that allows them to be more efficient, as well as adding Bus Priority (West Park Road Junction only) to improve bus journey times and reliability. Bus priority improvements assist buses in crossing the Ring Road more efficiently at this junction.
The pedestrian crossing across the Ring Road to the north of Commercial Road was improved from an uncontrolled crossing to a signalised pedestrian crossing.
The scheme also includes a refresh of the yellow box junction in line with the most up to date guidance.
Footways and resurfacing
Footways and the carriageway have been resurfaced. High quality materials have been used for footway paving and new kerbs were added.
People walking and those with limited mobility
Footways and crossing facilities for people with limited mobility as well as those who are walking and cycling have been upgraded so it is safer and more direct to cross between the Station, Mayflower Theatre, Parks, City Centre and surrounding area.
