Plans to overhaul a busy west Leeds junction will slash congestion, highways chiefs believe.
Dawson’s Corner, in Pudsey, is ravaged by heavy traffic and delayed buses at peak times. Now, Leeds City Council has submitted proposals to rejig the four-way junction, with a view to widening the approach roads, installing new bus lanes and pedestrian crossings.
A planning statement attached to the application said the road’s current layout, “does not provide adequate capacity for existing traffic” and that “consequently congestion frequently occurs on the approaches” to Dawson’s Corner.
