Drone footage of traffic movement on the Cyclops junction in St Helens, Merseyside with some hyper lapse capture too, but what is a CYCLOPS Junction?
The unique design of the CYCLOPs junction completely separates pedestrians and cyclists from motor traffic at junctions, reducing the possibility of collisions or conflict. Pedestrians are also able to get where they want to be in fewer stages with more space to wait than on other junction designs.
How does it work?
The outer ‘ring’ of the junction – coloured green – is a cycle path, acting like a roundabout with signal-controlled crossings. This allows those who cycle to cross over the junction or make right turns unrestricted by cars or foot traffic, creating a safe route to travel
The inner ‘ring’ of the junction – coloured red – is dedicated to pedestrians
There are well-defined pedestrian crossings on each side of the junction to provide a safe place to cross the cycle lane for pedestrians.
There are also puffin crossings allowing pedestrians safe travel across the carriageway
All motorised traffic stops at the lights whilst cyclists and pedestrians have their green light signal
Once pedestrians and cyclists have passed, motorised traffic will get the green signal to continue driving and will be able use the junction like normal.
