Cycle Superhighway 8 Upgrade Chelsea Bridge at the Junction of Grosvenor Road Cycle Superhighway 8 Upgrade Chelsea Bridge at the junction of Grosvenor Road Response to Consultation December 2015 Cycle Superhighway 8 Upgrade Chelsea Bridge at the junction of Grosvenor Road Response to Consultation Published December 2015 Executive summary Between 9 February and 20 March 2015, we consulted on improvements at Chelsea Bridge at the junction of Grosvenor Road as part of an upgrade to Cycle Superhighway 8. We received 73 responses to the consultation – 6 from stakeholders and 67 from members of the public. 52 (or 71%) of all respondents stated support or partial support for our proposals to introduce a two-stage right turn at the junction of Chelsea Bridge with Grosvenor Road. After considering all responses, we plan to proceed with the scheme to: Provide a new two-stage right turn facility for cyclists travelling on CS8. Right-turning cyclists will now wait in a marked waiting area on the road until they receive a green signal to cross the junction. This new safety feature will remove the need for right-turning cyclists to move across lanes of traffic, allowing cyclists to turn right more safely from Chelsea Bridge into Grosvenor Road Re-mark traffic lanes on Chelsea Embankment on the approach to the junction to provide dedicated lanes for traffic travelling ahead, turning left and turning right Provide mandatory cycle lanes on both the approach to and exit from Grosvenor Road Re-surface all of the junction to provide a smoother surface for all road users Additionally, we will install a cycle track at footway level on the exit to Chelsea Embankment to provide a safer route for westbound cyclists. Subject to final discussions with key stakeholders, including the relevant boroughs, we expect to begin works in early 2016. We will write to local residents and affected properties before work starts to provide a summary of this consultation, an overview of the updated proposals and an outline of the construction programme. We will also continue to raise awareness of the new two-stage right turn facility at the junction of Chelsea Bridge with Grosvenor Road.

To achieve this growth, Transport for London (TfL) is planning a far-reaching programme of cycling provision to make the capital’s streets more attractive for cycling to more people, especially those groups currently under-represented among cyclists, including women, young people and older people. Cycle Superhighways are TfL’s flagship cycling programme and aim to provide a London-wide network of direct and high-capacity cycle routes, mostly along main roads. The Superhighways provide safe, comfortable and convenient journeys for anyone on a bicycle and essential links between London’s suburbs and the city centre and for shorter journeys in-between. TfL is working closely with cycling, road user and community groups, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, and the Metropolitan Police, amongst others, to review and improve cycling provision on Cycle Superhighway Route 8 (CS8), first launched in 2011. As part of this work, we have developed proposals to improve safety at the Chelsea Bridge / Grosvenor Road junction. We consulted on these proposals between 9 February 2015 and 20 March 2015. This report summarises the public consultation and responses received. It also sets out TfL’s plans following consultation and its response to issues commonly raised. 1.1 Purpose of the scheme As part of the Mayor’s Vision for Cycling published in spring 2013, TfL is undertaking a programme of improvements along the 4 existing Cycle Superhighway routes which have been implemented to date. We are proposing to make changes to the junction to allow cyclists to turn right more safely from Chelsea Bridge into Grosvenor Road. 1.2 Description of the proposals The proposals put out for consultation included: Providing a new two-stage right turn facility for cyclists travelling on CS8. This new safety feature would remove the need for right-turning cyclists to move across lanes of traffic, allowing cyclists to turn right more safely from Chelsea Bridge into Grosvenor Road Re-marking traffic lanes on Chelsea Embankment on the approach to the junction to provide dedicated lanes for traffic travelling ahead, turning left and turning right Providing mandatory cycle lanes on both the approach to and exit from Grosvenor Road Re-surfacing all of the junction to provide a smoother surface for all road users 1 1.3 Overview map 2 2 The consultation The consultation ran between 9 February 2015 and 20 March 2015. It was designed to help TfL understand local and stakeholder opinion about the proposals in order to make a well-informed decision. The objectives of the consultation were: To understand any issues that might affect the proposals of which we were previously unaware To understand concerns and objections To allow respondents to make suggestions 2.1 Who we consulted We wrote to a number of local people and key stakeholders including: Local households and businesses in the vicinity of the scheme area (see Appendix C for details of consultation letter distribution) Key stakeholders such as traffic police, Members of Parliament, Assembly Members, local councillors, local interest and road user groups. A list of the stakeholders consulted is shown in Appendix D. A summary of their responses is in Section 5. 2.2 Consultation material, distribution and publicity Consultation material was available at https://consultations.tfl.gov.uk/roads/chelsea- bridge, via post and email. Materials included an overview letter and a drawing which described and illustrated the proposals. We invited people to respond via an online survey on the TfL website or by email to [email protected]. We promoted the consultation through multiple channels: Email: We emailed 141 stakeholders. An email describing the proposals was sent to stakeholders listed in Appendix D. The email is shown in Appendix E. Letter: We distributed a consultation letter and drawing to 196 local households and businesses within the scheme area highlighted in Appendix C. A copy of the letter and drawing are shown in Appendix B. 3 3 Overview of consultation responses 3.1 Background questions The consultation received 73 responses in total. 6 were from stakeholders and 67 responses were from members of the public. 66 of the responses were submitted online via the TfL Consultations website and 7 by email.

It also includes a large parade ground and underground parking facilities. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) is proposing to dispose of this site in 2007/8 and relocate to Woolwich. This will therefore releases this 5.18 ha. site for disposal and re-development. Chelsea Barracks occupies a significant length of the City’s boundary with the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea (RBK&C). The site is bounded by Ebury Bridge Road, Pimlico Road, and with a long frontage onto Chelsea Bridge Road. The site is in a substantially residential area and abuts residential properties, many listed, on its north boundary. It is also flanked by two conservation areas and on its western boundary faces the Grade II registered Ranelagh Gardens, which is within RBK&C. The Chelsea Barracks Brief is part of a family of briefs for the Victoria Area. The other briefs currently being prepared for the Victoria Area are the Victoria Area Planning Brief, covering the Station, other related sites, and the Pimlico School Planning Brief.

  • Title: Royal Hospital Road – Chelsea Bridge Road Subject: VISSIM
    Title: Royal Hospital Road – Chelsea Bridge Road Subject: VISSIM modelling outputs of the proposed all-round pedestrian stage Date 31-07-2019 Attendance: Spencer Wilson (RBKC) Adam Greenland (TfL) The purpose of the meeting was to discuss the output of the revised traffic signal modelling with the reallocation of green time. Background: The previous modelling had excesses queuing on Chelsea Bridge Road southbound during the PM peak, due to arrival rate of traffic at Chelsea Bridge Road / Grosvenor Road junction. It is worth noting the introduction of the pedestrian phase at the junction only had a moderate impact on delays, but the additional platoon of traffic being discharged towards Chelsea Bridge Road / Grosvenor Road junction demonstrated the potential for traffic to block back to Royal Hospital Road junction. TfL have reallocated green time to Royal Hospital Road & Pimlico Road movements to minimise the amount of traffic heading southbound. Modelling: We reviewed the AM and PM peak models to see whether the traffic queued back past Franklins Row on Royal Hospital Road approach in the AM and Turks Row on Lower Sloane Street in the PM. Whilst there was a queue, it only appeared to queue back to these junctions on a couple of occasions. For the vast majority of the peaks, traffic cleared the junction during each green phase. To further understand the impact of the pedestrian crossings TfL advised splitting the journey time between two points, these are as follows: • Figure 1 - upstream of the junction on Lower Sloane Street to Chelsea Bridge Road • Figure 2 - downstream of the junction on Chelsea Bridge Road to Grosvenor Road Figure 1 - The red marks are show where the journey times are measured to and from Figure 2 - The red marks are show where the journey times are measured to and from Results: From the results its realistic to conclude the AM period has no real impact apart from additional queuing on the approaches due to the addition of the all round pedestrian stage.
