Brentwood Local Plan 2016 - 2033 (Pre-Submission, Regulation 19)

Representation ID: 22186

Received: 25/02/2019

Respondent: Trailnet CIC

Representation Summary:

The Cycle Brentwood group has surveyed residents regarding their attitudes to cycling and the overwhelming reason that they don't cycle more is their perception of cycling as a dangerous activity.

With the amount of open land in the borough, developing off-road cycle routes should be a priority. This will encourage more people, especially families, to cycle for leisure and maybe transport.

Where off-road routes are not appropriate, more provision must be made for segregated cycle paths alongside busy roads, or marked lanes in combination with traffic calming measures on quieter roads.
