City Road to A50
New link roads would be built on either side of the A500 between City Road and Whieldon Road and new slip roads provided south of Whieldon Road to connect these to the A500. The existing underpass taking Whieldon Road under the A500 would be retained. The River Trent, currently in a culvert, would be opened up to follow a new course west of the A500. A small amount of land near Cornawallis Street and Maclagan Street would need to be acquired for this, but no houses would be taken. The A500 would be widened to three lanes in each direction within the existing road boundary from Whieldon Road to the A50 junction, at a similar level to the existing road.
