Your views on the proposed changes to Angel Road Waterloo Road Junction

Overview

Consultation on the proposals for the Angel Road/Waterloo Road junction

Norfolk County Council is asking for feedback on proposed changes to the Angel Road/Waterloo Road junction in Norwich. The aim of the scheme is to improve bus journey times along Angel Road by changing the priority traffic flow at the junction. In doing so, it will reduce the delays to buses caused by vehicles travelling along Waterloo Road and therefore deliver better bus punctuality and reliability for passengers. 

The Department for Transport (DfT) has awarded the county council nearly £50m of funding for its Bus Service Improvement Plan, aimed at improving bus services and infrastructure facilities across the county. The plan includes measures such as integrated travel hubs, new and more frequent services and bus priority infrastructure schemes such as this project at the Angel Road/Waterloo Road junction. You can read more about our work on the Bus Service Improvement Plan by visiting www.norfolk.gov.uk/busstrategy.

The documents below detail exactly what we’re proposing and why and the accompanying plan shows what the project could look like on the ground.

After reviewing the proposals below please answer the questions in the online survey on the following page.
