Purpose

Lancashire County Council has been awarded ring fenced active travel funding from various funders including the Walk, Wheel and Cycle Trust and the Department for Transport (to be passported via the Lancashire Combined County Authority).

This report seeks approval to bring in funding to the Transport Block of the Capital Programme, and to set out what schemes would be funded across the multi-year programmes.

The programme will also support civic pride by improving the quality, accessibility and appearance of routes that connect Lancashire’s communities, town centres and local destinations.

This is deemed to be a Key Decision, and the requirements of the council's Cabinet procedure rules (Standing Order C18, Consideration of Key Decisions) have been complied with.

Decision

The Cabinet approved the recommendation(s) as set out in the report.
