Review written June 2019:- Be careful if you are a motorist and make sure you use Google Maps not your SatNav when driving around Cheltenham town centre (unless you have updated your SatNav since approx Aug / Sept 2018). Boots Corner for motorists is a classic money spinner for Cheltenham C.C. raising £1.3m in 7 months (the fine is approx £30 raising to £60 if not paid within 2 weeks (TBC))!!! Road signs are NOT CLEAR and it is very easy to get confused; in fact it has been reported that the council has changed road signage around Boots Corner a number of times making a bad situation even worse. Road signage ONLY says NO THROUGH ROUTE on the actual road, which you can miss if it is busy and if you have been lucky enough to see that you can't then turn around as it's too late. There also does not seem to be any eye level signs that tell you that cars are not to go down Royal Well Road and then North Street before you actually get to those roads. BEWARE!!!
This is a landmark in Cheltenham. It used to be a significant obstacle to pedestrians walking along the High Street due to the volume of traffic. It was also a hot spot for pollution. Cheltenham council has taken controversial action which has solved this problem. There is now a safe route to cycle into the center of town and parking for bicycles here.
Some motorists continue to complain.
