Western Road Traffic Changes Consultation open from 24 September and 15 October 2021

The Western Road Traffic Changes Consultation is open from 24 September and 15 October 2021.

The changes include:

• Simplification of the road layout with a central strip provided to help with pedestrian crossing. Other crossings would also be provided

• Extension to pavement either side of the crossing between Imperial Arcade and Churchill Square. This is designed to make it easier to cross between buses

• Removal of Clarence Square bus stops. This is because they are very close to Churchill Square and it will help provide additional pavement space

• Relocation of westbound Waitrose bus stop to near the junction with Sillwood Road

• Redesign of the Dyke Road junction with Western Road. This would remove the traffic lights and make Dyke Road a priority (‘give way’) junction but with traffic light crossings being retained on Western Road for pedestrians. This change will reduce waiting time for pedestrians at the Clock Tower and speed up bus journeys through the area. The bus only restriction would be relocated from Churchill Square to the Clock Tower with access to Queen Square instead being provided via Dyke Road

• Additional cycle parking, seating and tree planting

• A new loading bay on the north side of Western Road to the west of Hampton Place
