Binley Cycleway – Clifford Bridge Road section
Following the decision to approve the construction of the Clifford Bridge Road section of the Binley cycleway by the Cabinet Member for City Services, taken at a meeting on 9 December 2024, and the Scrutiny Co-ordination Committee acceptance of the decision on 21 January 2025, as well as the approval to proceed following a legal challenge in March 2025, we have now started work on the Clifford Bridge Road section of the Binley Cycleway.
Construction of the cycleway will start later in the year; we will keep this page updated.
Update 28 March 2025
The trees have now been removed and stump grinding has been completed. We will now be off site until later this year while we complete the detail design.
Update 11 March 2025
Following the conclusion of the legal challenge, we are now able to start work. This means that our contractor will be on site to remove the trees soon. An ecologist will inspect the trees for nesting birds before removal takes place.
Update 9 December 2024
Approval for the cycleway was granted at the City Service Cabinet Member meeting following four rounds of local engagement to help develop the proposals. The decision was made based on consideration of responses, representations and objections to the Tree Felling Notices, Notice of Proposal and Notices of Intent, and the petitioner's concerns relating to the proposed cycleway and tree felling.
August 2024 update
The Traffic Regulation Orders (TROs) and Tree Felling Notices required for the work are now live and show the design principles for the schemes you can comment on these.
The TROs have been advertised for:
- cycle track designation
- raised features at junctions – including pedestrian and cyclist crossing points
- controlled crossings – pelicans and toucan crossings
- double yellow lines
- speed limit reduction (30mph)
