Fig. 33 shows a lovely piece of concrete. I sincerely hope the planner hope to promote a greener, more pleasant junction than this monstrosity. My friends in Oxford despise Frideswide Square and avoid it because it is ugly and unpleasant.
Tightening vehicle approaches is a nightmare for cyclists. Victoria Road is an example of this. If the aim is to have cars overtake with mere centimetres between them and the cyclists, then the aim is fulfilled. I hope this is NOT the case.
Fig.32 again, shared spaces are bad. Segregate the cycles and pedestrians to prevent conflict. USE the space, do not waste it.
