We aim to make it easy to get around our streets on foot, in a wheelchair or on a mobility scooter. As part of our Local Transport Plan, we have developed a strategy to encourage walking. We also introduce a number of new schemes every year to improve accessibility. What we do to improve accessibility
Our Local Transport Plan capital programme includes a range of schemes to encourage walking and improve accessibility. These include:
- Controlled crossing facilities - including zebra, puffin and toucan crossings
- Build-outs to reduce crossing distances
- Pedestrian refuges
- Dropped kerbs and tactile paving
- New footways
- Widened footways
- Raised kerbs at bus stops
- Replacing steps with ramps
- Removing barriers that prevent use of paths by wheelchair and pushchair users
- Disabled parking bays
