Three routes in Urmston have been earmarked in a bid to boost safer cycling and walking, including a link to the Trafford Centre at a total cost so far of £5.5million.
Some £2.3m is to be spent on 'enhanced segregation' of cyclists and walkers at Lostock Road from Davyhulme Circle to junction 9 of the M60, with links to the shared-use bridge to the iconic shopping complex, at Shetland Way via Kingway Park.
Another route - costing £1.3m - will take in Canterbury Road, Railway Road and Winchester Road, intersecting with Crofts Bank Road, providing 'quiet streets' and mixed traffic routes for bikers and enhanced pedestrian facilities.
Also for £1.3m, there will be 5km of two-way fully segregated cycling at Barton Road (from Neary Way Roundabout), Crofts Bank Road, Station Road, and along Stretford Road, extending to the junction of Moss Vale Road and Church Road to the junction of Carrington Road.
