Consultation closed 17 July 2018
Essex Street is a direct route for journeys by bike between the UEA/west Norwich area and the city centre.
The consultation looks at low cost measures to improve the existing well-used cycle contraflow facility, reducing conflict for all users.
Proposals
The proposals will deter driving against the existing one-way restriction and offer better protection of the cycle lane with the following measures being considered:
- Making the 20mph speed restriction clearer
- Changing the junction priority where Essex Street meets Suffolk Square
- Marking out a 1.8 metre wide bay for parking on the north side of the carriageway
- Marking 20 metre of new no parking restriction (double yellow lines).
