Period footway and adjacent roadside cycle track at Marks Tey have been indented by later bus stop.
MoT eastern division manager Mr. J. Rowland Hill told a meeting of surveyors in 1939 that “the Minister [of Transport] is convinced that, as far as Trunk Roads are concerned, provision should be made for complete segregation of the various forms of traffic and, in all major schemes affecting Trunk Roads, footpaths, cycle tracks, and dual carriageways are to be provided.”
He added that the “duplication of the carriageway and the provision of cycle tracks between Kelvedon and Marks Tey,” had “commenced.”
