Consultation has concluded
Welcome to the engagement page for the Thame local cycling and walking infrastructure plan (LCWIP).
We want to make walking and cycling easier and more enjoyable for all in Thame. This LCWIP seeks to put in place a plan to help achieve this so that as funding becomes available, we know what infrastructure is needed to provide Thame with a high quality active travel network.
What is an LCWIP?
LCWIPs were introduced by the Department for Transport (DfT) in 2017, alongside their Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy, as a framework with which local authorities can ‘develop strategic plans to improve conditions for cycling and walking, in order to support increases in travel on foot and bicycle', by:
understanding existing and future travel patterns, and the barriers and enablers to increasing cycling and walking
identifying and mapping a recommended cycling network and core walking zones that will become the primary focus for infrastructure improvements
creating a prioritised pipeline of enhancements to ensure infrastructure effectively supports growth in cycling and walking, and contributes towards meeting broader local goals’ (DfT, 2017)
In order to make the Thame LCWIP the best we possibly can, we are seeking your views on where to make improvements. Let us know your thoughts and highlight the issues or improvements you would like to see addressed as part of the LCWIP. Using the online map found on this page, you are able to drop pins at any location in the local area and write comments.
The map shows two marked areas. The area within the red boundary is the extent of our area of focus. The area within the blue line is an indicative study area we would like to include as part of the Thame LCWIP. This is only provided as a guide and may change as the LCWIP develops and further investigation is undertaken.
Any comments we receive relating to locations in Buckinghamshire will be shared and discussed with Buckinghamshire County Council so they can also be fed into the production of their own upcoming LCWIP.
Next steps
This exercise will close for comments on Thursday 26 September at 11:59 pm. Upon completion of the exercise, we will analyse all of the responses received and update this page with a summary of the feedback.
The feedback will then be used to help us develop proposals for further public engagement at a later date.
Note: This information was updated on 17 September 2024 to reflect that the closing date for the exercise has been extended to 26 September from 19 September.
