Consultation has concluded

Update 30 January 2024

Today we have published our Consultation Report which explains the outcome of the consultation. We received 323 responses to the consultation and would like to thank everyone who took part.

Taking on board all feedback and based on further assessments, we have decided to consider an alternative set of proposals to those we consulted on for the junction of St. John’s Wood Road / Hamilton Terrace / Northwick Terrace. We believe it would be preferable to route Cycleway 51 via Cunningham Place and to amend the pedestrian and cycle crossing over St. John’s Wood Road. In early February 2024 we will hold a further consultation on these new proposals, and we will make a final decision on how to move forward once the consultation has concluded and we have considered the feedback we will receive. To see the plans for this consultation visit haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/cunninghamplace (website will be live on Monday 5 February)

We will decide how to proceed with the junction of St John’s Wood Road / Cunningham Place and the junction of Marylebone Road / Harewood Avenue / Enford Street once we have concluded the second consultation. Our responses to the issues raised in both consultations will be published in Spring 2024.

Our proposals are subject to Westminster City Council’s decision on how to proceed with the wider Cycleway 51 route.

Background

We have been working with Westminster City Council to develop proposals for a new high-quality Cycleway connecting Marylebone and St. John’s Wood with new crossings, protected cycle lanes and low-traffic streets. Cycleway 51 would also link to Lisson Grove and the Regent’s Canal and to the existing Cycleway 27 (East Acton to Walthamstow). It is a high priority in Transport for London’s Strategic Cycling Analysis which shows where there is likely to be high demand for better cycling routes in this area of London.Click on map for larger version

We would like your feedback on proposals to improve the junctions of Marylebone Road / Harewood Avenue / Enford Street and St. John’s Wood Road / Hamilton Terrace / Northwick Terrace as part of Cycleway 51. We would like to know how these proposals might impact you as you travel into or through the area.

What are we proposing at the Marylebone Road / Harewood Avenue / Enford Street junction

Click on map for larger versionAs part of the proposed Cycleway 51, a new cycle crossing of Marylebone Road (which is part of the Transport for London Road Network) is planned to connect Harewood Avenue and Enford Street. We have developed proposals to make it easier and safer for cyclists and pedestrians to cross at this location.

This junction is already well used by cyclists. Our proposals aim to improve safety and to provide a more attractive junction for the predicted increase in cycling along the planned Cycleway 51 from St. John’s Wood to Marylebone. Our proposals would also improve the junction for pedestrians with new and improved crossings and wider footways.

The map shows the proposals for this junction:

Marylebone Road

  1. Extend eastbound bus lane to improve bus journey times
  2. Removal of left turn into Harewood Avenue
  3. Removal of cycle lane on southern pavement and resurface pavement to improve the area for pedestrians
  4. Hospital parking bays relocated from Harewood Avenue to southern side of Marylebone Road

Harewood Avenue

  1. New signalised pedestrian crossing to improve safety for pedestrians to cross
  2. New protected northbound contraflow cycle lane to improve safety for cyclists and increase the number of cycle journeys, improving connections to Marylebone Station, Lisson Grove, Regent’s Canal and St. John’s Wood
  3. New protected southbound cycle lane with cycle box and early release signals. These new features would give cyclists a waiting area ahead of motor traffic, improving their visibility, and allowing them to move away from the traffic lights ahead of motor traffic. This would improve safety for cyclists and increase the number cycle journeys in Marylebone and wider area

Enford Street

  1. New southbound contraflow cycle lane would open up a new connection for cyclists to cross Marylebone Road from Harewood Avenue, improving safety for cyclists and increasing the number of cycle journeys to and from the West End

Click on image for larger versionWe have carried out traffic modelling for this proposal. Our traffic modelling indicates that these proposals would not cause any significant delay to road users in this area. Freight and servicing vehicles, taxis and general traffic would need to use alternative routes as a result of the changes to Harewood Avenue.

We previously consulted on changes to this junction in 2016. We have reviewed these plans and are consulting again to understand the views of the local community and wider stakeholders on our proposals to this junction and the junction at St. John’s Wood Road together.


What are we proposing at the St. John’s Wood Road / Hamilton Terrace / Northwick Terrace junction


Click on map for lager version As part of the proposed Cycleway 51, a pedestrian and cycle crossing is planned connecting Hamilton Terrace and Northwick Terrace crossing St. John’s Wood Road, which is part of the Transport for London Road Network. We have developed proposals to provide a safer and more attractive cycle connection, and to improve safety for pedestrians.


This junction is already well used by cyclists. Our proposals aim to improve safety and to provide a more suitable junction for the predicted increase in cycling along the planned Cycleway 51 . Our proposals also include wider pavements and shorter crossing lengths for pedestrians across St. John’s Wood Road and Hamilton Terrace.

The map shows the proposals for this junction:

Hamilton Terrace

  1. Widening the footways to make it easier for pedestrians to cross
  2. New protected southbound cycle lane to separate cyclists and pedestrians at the parallel zebra crossing
  3. Reducing the traffic lanes into St. John’s Wood Road from two to one to shorten the pedestrian crossing distance and create space for cyclists to enter and exit the new walking and cycling crossing on St. John’s Wood Road
  4. Removal of short section of parking bays on the centre and western side of Hamilton Terrace to facilitate improved pedestrian crossing points and safer passage for cyclists in north and southbound directions

St. John’s Wood Road

  1. New walking and cycling parallel zebra crossing to improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists. The new crossing would be a shorter distance than the current crossing
  2. Wider footway on the southern side at two locations to provide more space for pedestrians
  3. New two-way cycle track on the south side between the new walking and cycling crossing and Northwick Terrace to improve the connection from St. John’s Wood to Lisson Grove, Regent’s Canal and Marylebone

Northwick Terrace

  1. New two-way cycle track along the east side of Northwick Terrace to improve connections for cyclists from the new parallel zebra crossing on St. John’s Wood Road. This would improve safety for cyclists, increase the number of cycle journeys and separate pedestrians from cyclists
  2. Raised entry to Northwick Terrace to make it easier for people with pushchairs and wheelchairs to cross
  3. Removal of 12 metres of parking bays in order to build new two-way cycle track

Click on image for larger versionWe have carried out traffic modelling for this proposal. The results indicate that the proposed changes could be made with limited impacts on other road users. The modelling does show that there may be an increase in southbound vehicle queuing on Hamilton Terrace in the weekday AM peak hour.

Any changes to these junctions, following feedback to this consultation, could be made by Autumn 2024.


We have carried out Equalities Impact Assessments to look at the impact of our proposals on groups with protected characteristics. This is available on request.
