A Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) for Buckinghamshire, which will guide future investment in active travel infrastructure across the county, has been adopted by the Council.
Buckinghamshire has also been awarded more than £2 million to spend on developing further active travel projects and infrastructure in the county.
The Buckinghamshire LCWIP proposes a network of ‘corridors’ suitable for cycling, walking and ‘wheeling’ (adapted cycles, wheelchairs, mobility scooters, prams and push scooters), to connect towns and villages. The LCWIP has considered different journey destinations, including employment, education, public transport, local facilities, and visitor attractions.
Following approval of the LCWIP by Cabinet, the Council will continue to undertake further work to establish how these ‘corridors’ could be created, including local engagement, design work and seeking external funding – which is essential to progress these schemes.
The LCWIP ‘corridors’ may include new or improved off-road routes, routes alongside roads or crossing points.
