We have designed a scheme in consultation with stakeholders interested in greenspace and recreation to ensure that our scheme improves connectivity for pedestrians and cyclists in the city. Our new and improved footpaths and cycle routes will link with the existing network and we have accommodated future proposals (e.g. the Radial Greenway 1 'St Peters Place to City Centre') into our scheme design.
The new segregated footpaths and cycleways will have enhanced surfaces and signage. This scheme will provide major walking and cycling benefits. Indeed, active travel improvements have been a key consideration in the design of the project. Phase 1 of the river park will provide 650m of new and improved cycle paths and 1,600m of new and improved footpaths. Facilitating improvements to the environment and key routes into the city centre is integral to our aim of supporting healthier lifestyles and encouraging more sustainable and active means of travel.
The improvements will include new segregated footpaths/cycle paths around the edge of Ashley Road Open Space and through Central Car Park to LTN 1/20 standards. LTN 1/20 is the local transport note produced by the Department for Transport that provides guidance to local authorities on delivering high quality, cycle infrastructure. This is one of the first projects in the county that provides fully segregated facilities. These are important, primary cycle routes as defined in the Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan for Salisbury, and therefore justify upgrading to the highest standard.
The Salisbury River Park Masterplan outlines further phases, which will continue to improve the network of walking and cycling routes. We are actively seeking funding opportunities to deliver future phases of the river park.
There will however be some negative impacts on pedestrians and cyclists during construction including restricted access to parts of the river corridor, to Fisherton Recreation Ground and to Ashley Road Open Space. Some temporary and/or permanent diversions of footpaths and cycleways will be required.
We have identified measures to minimise disruption to recreational users and we will continue to consult those affected during the detailed design and construction of the scheme.
