Just a quick thing...

I have chosen not to use adverts, pop-ups, mailing lists, or mandatory subscriptions, but it means there is an ongoing cost for me in researching and writing content, and generally advocating for active travel - time spent not working! If you can throw a few pounds my way to help out, your support is gratefully received! Thank you!

Warwickshire County Council has released its latest iteration of design for redeveloping an important road junction in Nuneaton, linking Leicester Road, Newtown Road, and Vicarage Street into one large gyratory. Here, I take a look at those plans from an active travel perspective (walking, wheeling, and cycling) to see what we have and where the plans fall down.

A written article is also available that contains comments submitted to the Council.

  • 00:00 Introduction and context
  • 03:05 – Bond Street and Regent Street by the Station
  • 09:11 – Separated Main Road Cycling (Newtown Road)
  • 16:07 – Separated Cycling and Shared Space (Back Street to Vicarage Street)
  • 18:28 – Leicester Road Railway Bridge and a Network Gap
  • 25:22 – Grade Separation Over the Roundabout?
  • 27:01 – Final Thoughts
