Who won: C005PC St Botolph's Circus

About this contract

The scheme comprises significant public realm improvements to the existing St Botolph's Circus in Colchester, and associated highway works, including new at-grade crossings for active travel models and the removal from use of the existing three subways / underpasses, referred to as the Proposed Scheme. St Botolph's Circus is located to the south of Colchester city centre at the junction of Southway (A134) to the west, Magdalen Street (A134) to the east, Mersea Road (B1025) to the south, and St Botolph's Street to the north. The site functions as a large 'gateway' junction, leading to the city centre. The Future Transport Strategy defines the St Botolph's Circus area as both Zone 1 (city centre) and Zone 4 (Strategic Transport Corridor). The Proposed Scheme aims to: • Create a good quality urban realm and gateway to the city centre. • Develop an improved, safer environment for everyone. • Improve connectivity for communities to local and wider transport networks through bus, rapid transit and rail services and walking and cycling routes. • Ensure an inclusive and accessible area for all. • Balance the requirements of different travel modes • Reduce anti-social behaviour
