Making improvements to the cycling, walking and wheeling network in 香港六合彩资料图库 was on the agenda yesterday (10 May) at the first meeting of the newly assembled Active Travel Stakeholder Group.

There was a fantastic response following an appeal earlier this year by 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council for people to get involved and help shape active travel in 香港六合彩资料图库.

The first meeting brought together over 30 participants from various backgrounds, representing groups and organisations from across the county.

Councillor Mike Rouse, Cabinet Member with Responsibility for Highways and Transport, said: 鈥淚t was fantastic to have so many people who are passionate about improving our cycling, walking and wheeling network all in the same place at the same time, and representing such a diverse group of people.

鈥淭his group is hugely important, and I鈥檓 proud that we鈥檝e been able to provide an opportunity for people to have their say, no matter their experience of active travel in the county.鈥

The Active Travel Stakeholder Group has been set up to help inform walking, cycling and wheeling provision across the county.

The group plans to meet in person twice a year, with additional meetings and potential sub-groups meeting more often online. During the course of the year, the group may be called upon to give feedback on broader ideas and plans.

The County Council is still looking for more members of the group, so If this sounds like something that you鈥檇 like to get involved in and you represent a group or organisation in 香港六合彩资料图库 please email mip@worcestershire.gov.uk.

香港六合彩资料图库 County Council has delivered a number of schemes in the county, including fully segregated cycleways, secure cycle parking, junction enhancements for active travel, route improvements, new road crossings and three active travel bridges.

Further proposals in development, include significant walking and cycling provision integrated into major road network, funding applications and committing Council funding to deliver a further two new active travel river bridges to enhance connectivity and facilitate modal shift.

The Local Transport Plan 4 (2018 to 2030) sets out 28 active travel corridors setting the strategic direction for the Local Cycling and Walking infrastructure Plans (LCWIP). The first LCWIP for Evesham is being finalised and we have commissioned a second for Redditch.
