Safer, Better Streets - Surrenden Road / Preston Drove

We’re looking to improve Surrenden Road at the junction with Preston Drove as part of our Safer, Better Streets programme.

Every year we assess requests for safety improvements all over the city, using our 'Safer, Better Streets’ assessment process.

The proposed improvements to the layout include: 

  • Realigning and improving the existing informal pedestrian crossing on Surrenden Road
  • Widening the pavements, shortening the crossing distances
  • Moving the central island to a more suitable location
  • Adding an additional pedestrian island between the two southbound lanes
  • Widening and realigning the pavement on southern side of Preston Drove to enable safer crossing

We want to hear your views

The survey is open until 2 September 2024 and should take no more than 5 minutes to complete.

You can find more information on our Safer, Better Streets webpage, including how you can request a road safety improvement.
