Link Rd/St Georges Rd/Peninsula Rd JunctionOK going southGoing North, conflict between straight on cyclists and left turning motors is not resolved.At am peak Thurs 12 Dec, av. flows as follows:Left turning motors – 1 every 13 secStraight on cycles – 1 every 6 secs

E+C, present layout and collision statsNote many collisions on Link to StG corner, 5/11 serious collisions here.Data for 36 months period to 30 April 201242/92 (46%) collisions involved cyclists3 of serious collisions at StG junction involved cyclistsApprox 7 years ago a cyclist was killed at this location.

Note radius of corner is now larger – this is now a faster piece of road.

At present all motors slow at give way line (- -)to check for traffic from right.

When ped xing is green, there will be nothing to slow motors down.

London Rd / Newington Causeway SectionOn peninsular road, light control anticlockwise at NC; light control clockwise at LR. LR and NC have traffic lights.No information from TfL on phasing of lights.

1. Exiting NC southbound is OK2. From peninsula or LR, straight on cyclists are at risk from traffic turning into NC (left hook).3. Similarly for straight on cyclists at LR, at risk from turning buses.4. Cyclists exiting right from London Rd have to get across 2 motor traffic lanes on LR. 5. Cycle lane across junction only goes half way.
