A Network of good Cycle Routes, continued<br />
LEYTON TO BLACKHORSE ROAD<br />
The Leyton to Blackhorse Road route follows the same path<br />
as the Leyton to Chingford route until the junction with Grange<br />
Park Road. For the proposals for this section of the route please<br />
refer to section A-C and Junction 1 of the Leyton-Walthamstow-<br />
Chingford section.<br />
60<br />
Section D: Church Road<br />
Land use along Church Road is a mixture of residential/<br />
commercial. The 58 and 158 bus services travel along the road<br />
with two stops in each direction. Cyclists along this section of<br />
the route are provided an advisory cycle lane on both sides of<br />
the road but this breaks for residential car parking. Central hatch<br />
markings are in place for sections of the road with right turn<br />
lanes and pedestrian islands incorporated into the layout.<br />
Proposals<br />
• Semi segregated cycle tracks northbound and southbound<br />
• Raised junction entry treatments on side roads<br />
Junction 2: Church Road/Lea Bridge Road/<br />
Markhouse Road<br />
Addressing severance<br />
The junction with Lea Bridge Road is a key junction in terms of<br />
local connections and severance for cyclists. The junction is<br />
busy with a number of turning movements currently permitted.<br />
There is also a left turn slip into Church Road from Lea Bridge<br />
Road which bypasses the signalised junction.<br />
Proposals<br />
• Simplified junction with cycle signals and bicycle radar<br />
detectors<br />
• Introduction of Copenhagen turns for cyclists joining from Lea<br />
Bridge Road cycle super highway<br />
• Improved crossing facilities for pedestrians<br />
• New public space created by closing slip road from<br />
Lea Bridge Road<br />
Section E: Markhouse Road<br />
Markhouse Road is a key local link between the Blackhorse<br />
village area and Lea Bridge Road but is also the central spine of<br />
a residential area. It is a busy cycle route with cyclists provided<br />
advisory cycle lanes along the entire length of the road. South<br />
Grove Primary, Kelmscott School and Walthamstow Leisure<br />
Centre are located on the road.<br />
Proposal<br />
• Semi segregated/segregated cycle track in both north and<br />
southbound directions
