SIX.. Area-wide solutions: Primary cycle routes

Conclusion

The city faces many challenges in the future and we cannot rely on the road system alone to cope with the increased pressure of population growth.

While there have been many advances in the creation of the Chisholm Trail and, more generally, a primary cycle route network around the city, there is still a lot of work to be done to make cycling a more viable option than car use.

The Campaign would like to see...

Mitcham’s Corner and Hills Road bridge to be redesigned to remove gaps and difficulties in existing important cycle routes
The Newmarket Road/East Road/Elizabeth Way junction redeveloped with cycling
and walking in mind
The creation of the Chisholm Trail, a cycling super-highway linking the Science Park and Addenbrooke’s via the station
The creation of a route linking the city with Bar Hill
The removal of compromising and/or dangerous points on primary cycle routes
