This is a 20mph zone. A main cycling route rejoins the road here. A build out would discourage people parking cars on the dropped kerb here, which happens on a daily basis. A protected joining bit similar to that on Newton Road would be great.
This is a 20mph zone. A main walking route crosses the road here. Visibility isn't good particularity when crossing from West to East - a build out would help pedestrians have a better view and discourage people parking cars on the dropped kerbs.
There is a risk of conflict between motorists and cyclists due to the narrowing of the carriageway in the vicinity of a pedestrian crossing on Headley Way southbound. As the crossing is signal-controlled, this feature provides no addition safety or comfort to pedestrians, and should be eliminated.

New lights and crossings have been installed and pedestrians have recently been given a much safer way to cross Berkeley Place from west to east. The build-out near the end of Procathedral Lane has narrowed the roadway and made the pedestrian crossing time much shorter than it was. The two traffic lanes heading north east out of Berkeley Place are each now reduced to about 2.9 metres wide, leaving very little, or no space for a vehicle to pass a cyclist or for a cyclist to approach the ASL when traffic is stationary. The upward incline can make this even more awkward for a cyclist who needs to stop and then restart from a position behind or alongside vehicles south west of the build-out.
