Delivered as part of the Cross City Cycling package, the Ditton Lane project set out to reduce congestion and improve air quality, health, and road safety.

- A widened foot and cycleway on both sides of Horningsea Road between High Ditch Road and just north of Fen Ditton primary school
- A new toucan crossing north of Fen Ditton primary school
- An upgrade of the High Street puffin crossing to a toucan crossing
- Extended bollards and fencing on the approach to the school
- Widening of the footway on the west side of the green area on Ditton Lane
- Daffodil bulbs planted along the embankment slope
