Kings Cross gyratory
A strategic review was launched in December 2011. It will consider the future operation of the Kings Cross gyratory system and consider changing the one-way roads to two-way.
Next steps
Work has started on a feasibility study (the first part of the strategic review) and we have appointed a consultant to examine the area. The study will focus on the following roads:
- A201 Penton Rise, Kings Cross Road
- A501 Pentonville Road, Gray's Inn Road, Acton Street, Swinton Street
- A5202 Pancras Road, Midland Road, Goods Way
- A5203 Caledonian Road, Wharfdale Road
- A5200 York Way
We are working with the London Boroughs of Camden and Islington and representatives from cycling and pedestrian groups to develop the objectives of the review.
Progress meetings will be held throughout the feasibility study, which local community groups will be invited to.
Once this is done, we will generate a number of proposals through a series of workshops with key representative groups.
Further engagement will then be undertaken to consider which proposals we should develop further.
The preferred options will be announced by summer 2013.
Have your say
Local residents and the public will be consulted when the preferred options have been identified.
At this stage, comments or suggestions are welcomed. Please email them to us.
