Kings Cross gyratory

We are reviewing the road network in the Kings Cross area to make it safer for all road users, especially pedestrians and cyclists.
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.

Shocked community pays tribute to stabbed brother of EastEnders star

Shocked community pays tribute to stabbed brother of EastEnders Shocked community pays tribute to stabbed brother of EastEnders star nlnews@archant.co.uk 30 June 2008 Ben Kinsella HUNDREDS of tributes have poured in after the teenage brother of an ex-EastEnders star was stabbed to death in Holloway. Ben Kinsella, 16, the younger brother of actress Brooke Kinsella, 24, died after being knifed in York Way shortly after 2am on Sunday. Police are now investigating whether Ben was involved in an argument with a group of men in the street after he came out of Shillibeers pub that night. After the assault, Ben was taken to The Whittington Hospital in Magdala Avenue, Archway - but could not be saved. The killing comes on the anniversary of the fatal stabbing of another Islington teenager, 14-year-old Martin Dinnegan, who was knifed to death in Holloway on June 26 last year. Ben, who lived with his family in Lonsdale Square, Islington, had just finished his GCSEs at Hollo...

The killers of Ben Kinsella were gangster wannabes * * By Ryan Parry 12/06/2009 (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) (L-R) Alleyne, Braithwaite and Kika (Pic:Met Police) As members of the Market Massiv' gang, Michael Alleyne, Jade Braithwaite and Juress Kika demanded respect and loyalty. They fancied themselves as gangsters but in reality they were drugdealing cowards, armed with guns and knives, who needed ferocious Staffordshire bull terriers for protection. After gang leader Alleyne, his deputy Braithwaite and the lowly Kika were convicted of Ben Kinsella's murder, a source close to the group - too scared to reveal his identity - broke ranks to speak to the Mirror. He said: "They thought they were real bad boys walking round with their Staffs and a knife in their pocket. Mikey (Alleyne) had two Staffs and thought he was untouchable. This was his manor, no one could come down here and f*** with it. "They worked in twos for protection and they...
