Walking and Cycling
Reducing the need to travel by car is vital to
the success of the development and transport plans, but there are
also considerable health benefits to a strategy that encourages
walking and cycling.
The aim is to provide a high quality network
of routes that encourage use particularly for journeys to the town
centre, to work, to school and college, to the stations and for a
healthy outdoor leisure activity.
In this section of the website there are details on cycleroutes
and future cycling plans and news on a new scheme introduced to
encourage school children to cycle.
