Sir - As a cyclist who regularly crosses the junction of Parks Road and the Broad, I would like to support very strongly the proposal to replace the lights with a designated shared space for pedestrians, cyclists and traffic.
At present, vehicular traffic is too dominant, pedestrians find the sequence of lights baffling, and all Parks Road traffic is incited to speed because the green phase of the lights is so short.
A shared space approach would also be much more in keeping with the architectural and amenity value of this end of the Broad.
