What are the key routes for improving walking and cycling in Lambeth?
Lambeth want to create an attractive, convenient and safe environment for walking and cycling. Have your say on their draft “healthy routes” on their interactive map! Where do you feel unsafe, or a crossing that needs to be improved for a route you use? For those less able, are there barriers or access issues?

Lambeth Network Planning
Lambeth want to know your views on planning for new routes. Should it be route based (e.g. Quietways, Superhighways, Strategic Walk Network, Green Chain Walk), the way to go? Or is it better to focus on smaller scale interventions at multiple locations i.e. a ‘permeability’ approach? (e.g. creating Heritage Trails, or providing a local way-marking strategy). Or a bit of both? Please send your feedback to healthyroutes@lambeth.gov.uk
