The Buckinghamshire Local Access Forum is scheduled to consider proposals for new active travel routes and the creation of a bridleway. Discussions are also planned regarding updates on Chiltern Works, a grant fund for access, and policy and outdoor activity developments.
Active Travel Consultations: Haddenham to Thame and Denham to Hillingdon
The forum's attention is drawn to consultations concerning active travel routes. This includes proposals for a route connecting Haddenham to Thame and another between Denham and Hillingdon. These consultations are part of the council's ongoing efforts to improve facilities for walking and cycling, aligning with its commitment to promoting sustainable transport options.
Proposed Bridleway Creation, Wendover Woods
A report is scheduled to be presented regarding the proposed creation of a new bridleway within Wendover Woods. This item is likely to focus on the potential benefits and implications of establishing this new route for horse riders.
