Active Travel Fund 4 – Walking and Cycling Schemes
Consultation has concluded
This consultation was open from 5 Feb 2024 until 24 March 2024. The final decision details, alongside the final consultation report will be shared here in due course. Background to the consultation can be read below:
Background
We are seeking feedback on a series of proposed improvements to four walking, wheeling and cycling routes in Bristol.
The work to plan these active travel schemes is being funded by tranche four of the Active Travel Fund from the Department for Transport, which is administered by the West of England Combined Authority.
The four routes have been identified in the Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan.
We have used part of this funding to present possible measures on maps of these routes.
They include:
- Deanery Road
- Filwood Quietway
- Malago Greenway
- Old Market Quietway
Possible improvements could include segregated cycle paths, upgraded or new crossings, upgraded junctions, public realm improvements and wayfinding.
These sorts of improvements can help promote healthy travel choices, reduce emissions, create safer environments, and help grow the economy.
We are keen to hear what residents and stakeholders from across these four areas think of these early ideas.
We will go through all the feedback, and carry out further technical work in the spring to help decide what elements to take forward. We will then create more detailed designs at which point we would need to seek more funding.
