To the west, is a grade 2 listed wall which is part of Swindons railway history, to the east are business premises which are predominantly office blocks and a public house. The main carriageway has a one way double lane running southwest to northeast, with pedestrian ways either side. This scheme will remove one of the running lanes and replace it with a two way cycle lane at a split level between the carriageway and footway.

Primarily funded by the Government's Active Travel Fund, there is a strict spending deadline of the end of March 2022, it is recognised that some works are likely to continue into April 2022, which may be funded from additional revenue sources. Works will include, but are not limited to, adjustment of kerb lines, footway resurfacing, and construction of cycle lane, carriageway resurfacing and installation of traffic signals. Full details are included in the pre-construction information at Appendix I.
