London Cycle Design Standards (LCDS)

The seven chapters can be downloaded from the Streets Toolkit page

Chapter 2 – tools and techniques is here. This includes CLoS   – Cycling Level of Service assessment matrix in Fig 2.3 ( pages 6-10)

Chapter 4 – Cycle lanes and tracks is here. This includes some diagrams useful when arguing about cycle track widths e.g.

  • LCDS Figure 4.12 page 52 relates cycle flows (‘Low’,  ‘Medium’ and ‘High’) to the recommended widths for one-way tracks and two-way tracks.
  • while  LCDS Figure 4.12b page 54 defines the meaning of ‘Low’,  ‘Medium’ and ‘High’

Junction Assessment Tool

See LTN 1/20 Appendix B (also in  LCDS Section 2.2.7 (page 13).

This provides a neat way of giving a score to a junction.

On each arm of the junction, consider each possible movement (at a crossroads there should be three) and for each one score as 0, 1 or 2. E.g.

  • a movement that proceeds from one protected lane to another and is protected in time across the junction will score 2.
  • while a left hook or unsupported right turn (i.e having to wait in the middle of the road) will score 0
