Enabling more walking and cycling is one of the Council’s transport objectives. Making such trips safer and more convenient is one way to improve our air quality, reduce traffic congestion, and work towards our goal for the borough to be carbon neutral by 2040.
We are consulting on providing a new parallel crossing from Kempsford Gardens, across Old Brompton Road, to Brompton Cemetery. Parallel crossings enable pedestrians and cyclists to cross a road safely, with the same level of priority as a zebra crossing gives a pedestrian. Parallel crossings look similar to zebra crossings but include a separate crossing area for cyclists beside the traditional zebra crossing area for pedestrians. To facilitate the crossing, the proposals also include a compulsory left turn for vehicles exiting Kempsford Gardens on to Old Brompton Road.
Please read the following information carefully before filling in our consultation survey no later than 23 April 2023.
We're interested in your views on our proposals to introduce a new parallel crossing on Old Brompton Road. Your comments will help us decide whether to implement the proposals.
