ICAG, the Islington Cyclists' Action Group, by the way, have called for action on this junction for years but before this crash nothing happened. It's been a known issue for a long time. Now there are some better options on the table and TfL is working together with ICAG on choosing the best one, subject to funding. It won't necessarily be pretty, but it'll hopefully deal in some way with the staggered nature of the junction, with the positioning of the traffic signal heads, and I think one aspect that looks likely to happen is the relocation of the pedestrian crossing south of the junction.
