The level crossing at Cherry Street sits in the middle of an important network of busy commuter routes, local roads and the vibrant Watton Street shopping precinct. It is an important connection for the 20,000 vehicles that pass through each day.
Planning and technical work has identified two feasible designs for removing this level crossing.
