They wouldalso improve local walking and cycle access, as well as road safety, and address the barriers to local travel presentedby the busy Stafford Road.Policy Area Name Site Type IndicativeRefPhasingPolicy i54-City Centre Rapid TI 1 As yet unidentified By 2026Area 2 Transit / EnhancedBus CorridorWSP Park & Ride TI 10 Review role of existing Park and Ride site By 2016Cross Street North / TI 11 Junction Improvements, including 2021-2026Cannock Roadpedestrian enhancements54Options Report for the Development of the Stafford Road Corridor

This directly affects the Stafford Road - especially with the three bridges - and local focal points such as canallocks, cottages and significant open space.The Science Park provides a contemporary example of a quality business environment that addresses the canal. FiveWays Island provides a strong positive gateway to the city centre itself. Further proposed development around theScience Park provides the opportunity to add to the quality of the business environment and in particular to positivelyaddress the canal and the focal point at Bushbury Lane / Stafford Road. Existing trading estates provide opportunitiesfor enhanced canal side business environments overlooking Fowler Playing Fields and frontage enhancements alongStafford Road. The impact of historic bridges as they cross key routes should be utilised to the full.Policy Area Name Site Ref TypePolicy Five Ways Island D 11 GatewayArea 6Bushbury Lane Island D 12 Local Focal PointBridges on Stafford Road D 13 Local Focal PointJunction of Birmingham Canal D 14 Canal Focal Pointsand Oxley Viaduct at Jones RoadFox’s Lane access to Fowlers Playing Fields D 15 Canal Focal PointsBirmingham Canal at Cannock Road D 16 Canal Focal PointsBushbury Lane Island Refer to Strengthen Frontages /to Five Ways Island Masterplan EnclosureM54 J2 – Five Ways Island Refer to Enhance / ProtectMasterplan Residential Street FrontagesBushbury Lane & Showell Road Refer to Enhance / ProtectMasterplan Residential Street FrontagesStafford Road - Bushbury Lane Island Refer to Enhance Landscape to Street /to Gorsebrook Road Island Masterplan Corridor / CanalBirmingham Canal Refer to Enhance Landscape to Street /Masterplan Corridor / CanalBushbury Lane Refer to Strengthen Cross LinksMasterplanShowell Road Refer to Strengthen Cross LinksMasterplanInto Fowlers Playing Fields from Fox’s Refer to Strengthen Cross LinksLane, Crown Street / Bonemill LaneMasterplanDo you agree with the proposalsin this Character Area?Are there any other developmentproposals or designations (such as openspaces or local heritage sites) that needto be identified in this Character Area?Options Report for the Development of the Stafford Road Corridor 55
