The plan for Beaconside seems to involve terminating cyclists. Coming from Redhill roundabout through the three way lights, if you're on a bike doing 15mph at the end of the 30mph queue, you might only be two thirds through the single-lane section when traffic starts coming in the other direction. The chance of becoming a truck radiator badge is increased because the road is so narrow.
In the future the only thing that might ease Stafford's gridlock would be widespread use of bicycles, so it's shame there won't be any left. How about challenging a councillor and housebuilder to ride a bike around the area for a day?
