The Most Improved Journey to Work Award recognises the people who have enabled the journey to an employment location to be improved through the effective adoption of smarter travel principles, with significant numbers of people switching from lone car driver commuting to more sustainable travel.
The Winner: Lewes Road Improvement Scheme - Brighton & Hove Council
In nine months, Lewes Road has had a £6m plus transformation: 4.5km A27 dual carriageway converted into single carriageway for general traffic, plus a bus lane with a widened cycle lane; 14 improved bus stops, some now “floating", with cycle lanes passing behind, to remove conflict between buses and cyclists; and junctions reconfigured with extra pedestrian and cycle crossings.
