| Lara Croft Way opens in Derby to the Public |
| July 28th, 2010 |
Today the "Lara Croft Way" in Derby was opened to the general public, as apart of the city's new £36.2m inner ring road system designed to improve traffic flow.
The name was chosen from a shortlist by the public vote, with 89% of those polled opting for the character devised by Derby-based game studio Core Design.
Councillor Matthew Holmes, cabinet member for planning and environment, said: "The opening of Lara Croft Way signifies another major milestone
of the Connecting Derby scheme which is fast approaching completion after many years of hard work by a great number of terrific individuals."
"Derby is proud of its place in a vibrant creative industry and Lara Croft Way is fantastic way to celebrate that."
The completion of Lara Croft Way will allow drivers to access Burton Road, Babington Lane and Normanton Road
via the new roundabout at the junction of Burton Road and Normanton Road. The Inner Ring Road project is due
to be fully completed at the start of 2011.
