Bickerstaffe Street to the west of Hall Street will be pedestrianised, incorporating a partly segregated and shared space cycle lane between the bus station and the new hotel.

Hall Street – between Bickerstaffe and Corporation Street – will be closed to private vehicles and feature a paved pedestrian footpath and cycle lane access point with planting to the edges.

Bickerstaffe Street to the east of Hall Street will see a new layout, with the introduction of a new contraflow cycle lane and new kerb alignments up to Haydock Street and the existing pedestrianised area to the railway station changed to accommodate cycle movements. Vehicularly movements from Haydock Street onto Bickerstaffe Street will only be permitted to turn left and move south along Hall Street.

The junction of Hall Street and Corporation Street adjacent to The Millennium Centre car park will become pedestrianised. Access to the Millennium Centre car park will be through Shaw Street onto Hall Street.

The existing one-way access point from Hardshaw Street onto Corporation Street near Library Street will become pedestrianised, with no through access onto Corporation Street. Instead, vehicularly traffic movements will be rerouted along Vincent Street onto Parade Street.

Pedestrian crossings and continuous footpaths will connect pedestrians along the length of Bickerstaffe Street.

In addition to secure cycle storage inside the bus concourse building, outdoor cycle stands will be introduced to encourage links between active travel and public transport.
