Honey Lane (scheme 18)

Added by George Lund

Epping Forest Cycling Action (2018) scheme 18 proposes:


Creation of new mandatory cycle lanes in both directions along Honey Lane, from Old Shire Lane to Shernbrook Road (North). Existing carriage way is 9m width in places but not for whole extent, reducing to 5.5m in other locations, so potential width issues. Some potential to increase width at eastern end of Honey Lane, although this will create lane ownership issues. Extends potential scheme 8 (advisory cycle lanes) and links to potential scheme 7.


EFTAG is not in favour of mandatory cycle lanes without segregation, as these are widely abused, are not enforced, and do not afford safety to users. Only schemes that separate a cycle track with kerbs (where possible), wands or using the 'hybrid cycle track' approach will attract our support on busy urban roads such as this.
