CONTROVERSIAL cycle lanes could be extended under new plans which will be put to the public for consultation. Brighton and Hove City Council recently received £2.376 million from the government’s active travel fund to progress cycle lane schemes, on top of the previous government award of £663,000 in June. Under the plans, the temporary protected cycle lanes on the A270 Old Shoreham Road would be extended with lanes from the Hangleton Road junction to near the western city border at Applesham Way and Wolseley Road. The temporary protected cycle lanes in the A259 Kingsway and Wellington Road would also be extended from Fourth Avenue to the west of the city.
