Arlington Road runs parallel to Camden High Street on the west side and it forms part of a route that we once named as LCN 6a. (See Open Street Map http://www.openstreetmap.org/search?query=arlington%20road%20camden#map=16/51.5369/-0.1428&layers=C) for the original route that continues south via Mornington Crescent and Hampstead Road.
We had a previous discuss on CycleScape when Camden Council asked us about provisions to make it more comfortable for cycling.
https://camdencyclists.cyclescape.org/issues/2012-arlington-road
The main point made was that there is too much through traffic.
Other points were:
– too much parking near to the junctions.
– parking on both sides between Jamestown Road and Delancey Street
Unfortunately the measures proposed are very disappointing:
– all that is offered is the removal of car parking on the southern approach to the Parkway junction to accommodate queueing traffic.
