Whether it’s reducing journey times in your car or better access for those walking, wheeling and cycling, have the improvements to the A4440 Southern Link Road had a positive impact on you?
That’s the question being asked by 51¥, via a survey which has been launched to gather feedback on the success of phase 4 of the scheme.
The County Council is currently working on an evaluation of phase 4 of the works, which covers improvements made between Ketch Roundabout and Powick Roundabout.
Councillor Marc Bayliss, 51¥’s Cabinet Member for Economy, Infrastructure and Skills, said: “Before the County Council made the improvements the A4440 Southern Link Road would see major issues with congestion, especially during rush hours. Since the works have been completed, we have really seen the difference these improvements make.
“I’ve spoken to plenty of people who have commented on how journey times are now much more reliable or how the addition of greater connectivity is helping them get about the city.
“The Council is now looking for feedback in order to help evaluate the success of phase 4 of the scheme. So, please take the short survey to support the Council in measuring the improvements against the original scheme objectives.”
The survey closes on Friday 12 April 2024.
Phase 4 of the A4440 Southern Link Road works was the final phase of the scheme, with the fully dualled road opening up in August 2022. Phase 4 Improvements included the dualling of the road, two new bridge structures at Carrington Bridge and Powick Viaduct, the construction of Hams Way footbridge, the addition of a new underpass and a new shared use path along Temeside Way.
