Connecting Essex through Cycling and Walking – Consultation

An consultation has been launched asking residents to give us their views on our proposed Connecting Essex cycling network

The consultation will  end on the 10th of January 2024. We particularly want to hear from residents about whether the routes provide the right strategic links and whether there are any important routes not shown.

The routes are designed to create a network of sustainable, interconnected linking routes which enable more walking and cycling. They ensure a long-term approach is taken for planning future investment and are reviewed approximately every three years as part of the Government’s Gear Change strategy. By identifying key routes and then seeking funding for high quality infrastructure, we hope that cycling and walking will become the safe and easy choice for travelling, either for shorter, local journeys or as part of a longer one. By switching to more sustainable forms of travel, residents will have more choice in how they get around.
