Area 1b – Stretford Road to Moss Lane West

More than 1,800 miles of routes with 400 miles of Dutch-style segregated bike lanes will form The Bee Network the UK’s largest joined-up network for walkers and cyclists. The routes will connect every community in Greater Manchester and make cycling and walking an easy alternative to car travel.

The measures will create a route that creates large sections of segregation between people travelling on foot or by bike and traffic.
We’re doing this by improving our connections across the city to support long-term, sustainable economic growth and access to opportunities for all; the work also ties in with the Greater Manchester 2040 Transport Strategy

Following the consultation and engagement events we carried out between November 2018 and January 2019, we have listened to your feedback, adjusted our plans and can now share the latest details with you.

The Plan

Work has now started on this section, which runs from Stretford Road to Moss Lane West, and consists of segregated cycleways, raised sections of road at junctions (to enable pedestrians and wheelchair users to cross more easily, while ensuring motor vehicles slow at the approach to the junction), and changes to parking restrictions. We expect this work to last until Spring 2021.
