The scheme will increase capacity and improve traffic flow at the A46 Riseholme roundabout

As part of the project, an extra lane will be added to the roundabout.

Extra entrance and exit lanes will also be constructed at all approaches and exits.

In addition, the roundabout’s drainage system will be rebuilt, new signs and lighting columns installed and sections of the existing road rebuilt to minimise future maintenance.

AIMS AND BENEFITS

The project aims and benefits are to:

  • increase capacity and reduce congestion at Riseholme Roundabout
  • improve journey times and reliability along the route and in the surrounding area
