London Road and Cheltenham Road, Gloucester Proposed Permanent Cycle Scheme
**The formal consultation for this scheme is now closed**All representations received are being duly considered
Background
In 2020, Gloucestershire County Council secured £1.1 million of EATF (Emergency Active Travel Fund) to start the first phase of the B4063, Cheltenham to Gloucester cycle route between University of Gloucestershire Oxstalls campus and Great Western Road, Gloucester. As part of the cycle scheme we offered local residents and businesses alternative parking locations in side streets, such as permit bays, limited waiting and loading bays.
This scheme was originally brought in using Temporary Traffic Regulation Orders (TTROs) made under the regulation introduced by central government in response to the COVID pandemic to allow local authorities to implement schemes to encourage active travel and the reopening of high streets. The scheme can only be in for a maximum of 18 months on a temporary basis so therefore needs to be formally consulted on the intent to make it permanent and a decision made before February 2022, when the time will lapse on the temporary measures.
More information can be found at here.

London Road Covid-19 Pedestrian/Cycle Improvements
London Road Cycle Scheme – a 24 hour 7 days per week mandatory cycle lane has been introduced along London Road and Cheltenham Road in Gloucester. In order to facilitate cyclist safety, a new temporary traffic regulation order (TTRO) is being introduced to implement a 24 hour 7 days per week loading ban along London Road and Cheltenham Road. This restriction will stop vehicles being able to enter the mandatory cycle lane to wait, park, load and unload at all times, therefore, ensuring the cycle lane is kept clear and free of obstructions for cyclists to safely ride along it at all times of the day and week. The TTRO will become effective on 30th October 2020.
You can find out more about this scheme here.
