Bad news - serious cyclist injury on Eastboro Way, today. This is a busy, 40mph road (but with some drivers going faster) with industrial units and thus heavy traffic. There is no cycle infrastructure and the one footpath is not wide, but it's an important route to bypass the town centre.

Coventry Live · Cyclist seriously injured in collision which has closed Nuneaton roadPolice remain on the scene in Eastboro Way

Given the importance of the route in connecting east and south Nuneaton, children can be seen walking and cycling up here to access school, furthered by recent residential development towards the southern end.

It does leave the question of why this road so poorly provides for active travel and whether there should be some responsibility put on Highways for having never installed good infrastructure here.
