TfL has revealed that cycle superhighways will remain open during major roadworks on the Victoria Embankment from April 2019.
The closure of the Embankment, expected to last up to six months, is needed in order to move two gas mains to make way for London’s new super-sewer.
But while motor traffic is due to be diverted south along heavily congested Southwark Street, TfL has assured cyclists that the east-west and north-south cycle routes will remain unaffected.
A TfL spokesperson told Cyclist magazine: “we kept the cycle superhighway as a priority” during the planning process.
The City of London Corporation is said to be “really concerned” at the plans, with members of the Corporation’s streets and walkways subcommittee kicking up a big fuss at an emergency meeting on July 2.
At the meeting councillors suggested that traffic should be moved onto the cycle lanes during the works and the lanes routed elsewhere.
