£2.4 million town centre cycling junction is officially open A MULTI-million pound cycling junction has opened in Bolton town centre. Newport Street and Trinity Street junction has been transformed to the tune of £2.4 million to create the UK's second innovative CYCLOPS — Cycle Optimised Protected Signals — junction. Work to transform the busy intersection started seven months ago and is part of wider £7.6 million scheme designed to, say transport bosses, "deliver a more integrated network in Bolton town centre". The scheme, which hopes to enhance cycling and pedestrian access around the town centre, will feature an “orbital cycle route”, offering bikes a dedicated space away from other road traffic.
