Views wanted over Walking and Cycling Strategy
Bridgend County Borough Council is launching a public consultation exercise as the first step towards producing a Walking and Cycling Strategy for the county borough.
Between Monday 19 January and Friday 20 February, the authority will be asking local people for their views about its plans to address walking and cycling issues within the area.
The main focus of the strategy is on walking and cycling as modes of transport. It also promotes the health, economic and environmental benefits of using alternative methods of transport, and complements the Rights of Way Improvements Plan (ROWIP).
The full draft strategy and executive summary are available to view online at the consultation pages of the council’s official website, www.bridgend.gov.uk, where a short questionnaire is also available for participants to give their views on the draft strategy.
Copies of the draft strategy and questionnaire will also be available at libraries throughout Bridgend County Borough, tourist information centres in Bridgend and Porthcawl and at the Civic Offices in Angel Street, Bridgend.
Local interest groups including the Local Access Forum, Sustrans and town and community councils have been advised about the consultation and invited to take part.
