Purpose

Herefordshire Council was offered the
opportunity to submit a bid for the ATF4 in early 2023. ATF4
provides Herefordshire Council the opportunity to deliver
infrastructure that enables walking, wheeling and cycling within
the County, supporting an uptake of active travel for everyday
trips. Herefordshire Council was successful in being awarded
£306k of grant funding to be used on four active travel
schemes;

- School Streets
- Barton Road
- Aylestone Hill
- Dropped Crossings

The ATF4 grant funding must be commitment during 2023/24 financial
year with works completed as reasonably possible thereafter.
Failure to achieve these timescales would result in funds being
returned to Active Travel England (ATE).

AECOM will pick up design, consultation, project management and
other relevant work to ensure that each scheme is designed and
delivered within the required funding timescales.
