Regent Farm Road / Christon Road design
Some rejigging
There some flaws in the design. Pedstrian desire lines are ignored leading to staggered / staged crossings. The whole design does not do much for the public realm in general and the area remains an 'urban motorway'.
The cycle lanes (width unknown) are an inadequate separation for the volume/speed of traffic and not even elephant footprints across to guide cyclists across the wide opening of the Regent bus stop entry have been included.
Regent Farm Road entry should be closed down.
We do not hold out much hope for the traffic light phasing. They will likely to be conventional highway design too.
