Many thanks to all of you who have given us your feedback on Lambeth Healthy Routes. The response has been fantastic and today we passed 2,000 contributions to the map - comments and 'likes' - from 250+ contributors. We've also had a really good response to the Local Plan Review transport survey . There are still a couple of weeks to go before these consultations close on the 4th of December, so please make any further comments you'd like to and encourage others to do so before then.
Once the consultation closes we will start to review all the data and consider the implications for Lambeth's Transport Strategy - more focussed engagement on that next year. In the meantime, we've identified the Top 20 most agreed with comments so far. It's not just a numbers game of course, but this does show issues and locations that are flagging up as particular concerns at this stage.
As before, if you have any more detailed comments or suggestions on our overall approach please contact us at healthyroutes@lambeth.gov.uk .
Regards,
Simon.
Many thanks for taking an interest in Lambeth's Healthy Routes consultation. We've already had over 300 comments added to the map with many of these containing detailed descriptions of issues and opportunities for us to consider. If you can nudge friends, colleagues and neighbours to take part that would be great as we want to capture feedback from as wide a cross section of the community as possible. Also, if you haven't already done so, please take a few minutes to complete the Local Plan Review Transport Survey. These consultations run until December.
Network PlanningWe'd be really interested to hear general feedback about the approach we have taken to planning healthy routes. In particular, is a route based approach (e.g. Quietways, Superhighways, Strategic Walk Network), the way to go, or is it better to focus on smaller scale interventions at multiple locations i.e. a 'permeability' approach? Or both? Please send your feedback to healthyroutes@lambeth.gov.uk .
Finally, it's not all about infrastructure and we have a busy programme of activities to promote walking and cycling. Check out our re-launched Try Before You Bike scheme and find out about 'Secret Lambeth' self guided walks by contacting walking@lambeth.gov.uk for a booklet or visit our Events page for guided walks.
