Joining the dots: walking and cycling network planning in suburban and rural areas

There has long been a vision across the UK for a nationwide network of safe, signed and traffic-free paths connecting cities, towns, villages with access to the countryside.

Post COVID, this vision has become even more important, and this webinar will explore the initiatives helping to make the vision a reality:

Making rural and suburban cycling and walking routes safe, connected and accessible Creating more sustainable places to live and work outside of urban hubs Low maintenance and environmentally-friendly engineering solutions

Chair: Andy Pickett, Chair, Footways and Cycleways Management Group (FCMG), CIHT
