Works have now started on the latest phase of Trafford Council's programme of constructing cyclops junctions along the A56 Chester Rd/Talbot Rd. The junction improvements will see the creation of a safe continuous cycling and walking link through to the centre of Trafford, opening the area up for active travel, improving safety and taking cars off the road.

Phase 6 will see the junctions of Talbot Rd/Chester Rd and Talbot Rd/Seymour Rd undergoing major reconfiguration into cycle friendly cyclops junctions, including smart signals to cut down on unnecessary waiting. Talbot Road is a very busy road and well used by local cyclists to get around. These works will make it easier and safer to use.

Works are programmed to be completed by Christmas 2025 with futher updates to follow.
