Key upgrades to busy transport hotspots in Oadby, including The Parade and Brabazon Road junctions with the A6, are set to begin this August as part of a £1.9m investment to improve safety and traffic flow.

Phase one of the project begins on 3 August and will include new and upgraded signal-controlled pedestrian and cycle crossings, improvements to footways including resurfacing, renewal of traffic signals and more. Speed limits will not be changed.

Benefits include safer crossings and reduced risk of vehicle collisions, better visibility between drivers and pedestrians and shorter, safer crossings.
