A new consultation is out on changes to Cable St, including some improvements to Cycle Superhighway 3. Whilst we would like to see the scheme go further, there are some good proposals here, in particular a major improvement to the confusing junction with Sutton St and a new parallel pedestrian/cyclist zebra crossing and contraflow cycle lane at King David Lane.

LB Tower Hamlets are consulting on a filtered permeability scheme in the Cable Street area that aims to improve the pedestrian and cycle environment - see the consultation announcement and flyer distributed to residents.

TfL have announced that following the recent consultations they plan to go ahead with the proposals, albeit with some minor changes and additions.

You can see full details here https://consultations.tfl.gov.uk/roads/cable-street and here https://consultations.tfl.gov.uk/roads/horseferry-road

TfL consultations close at midnight Friday (27th Feb) on 'improvements' to parts of the cycle track along Cable Street and the cycle route on Horseferry Rd (CS3). The consultations can be found at:
