Merton Council is proposing to introduce cycle facilities in North Road as part of the development of the London Cycle Network, funded by Transport for London.
This proposal is part of the proposed 900km of London wide cycle routes and is proposed to make it easier, safer and more convenient for cyclists to use North Road that forms part of the London wide network. The development of the cycle network is intended to increase peoples’ choice of realistic and affordable forms of transport.
The proposals are for a new pedestrian refuge located in North Road to provide a pedestrian facility and cycle right turn lane with widening of the existing footpath to promote a shared use facility for pedestrians and cyclists.
For further details see linked newsletter and plan below.
