Proposals to improve Linthorpe Road for cyclists and pedestrians have been given funding from the Department for Transport and from TVCA's Transforming Cities Fund.
Phase 2 of the scheme will link Ayresome Street to Devonshire/Cumberland Road through a mix of protected space for cycling on the highway, and improved road crossings for cyclists and pedestrians.
This scheme will help to:
- improve safety
- create a more pedestrian-friendly route
- support the local economy
- improve accessibility to local retail, leisure, and services
- reduce congestion, improving air quality and the local environment
- improve the public realm
- improve public health by reducing pollution
- create an environment where people can travel actively
- show a commitment to the government's aim of significantly increasing cycling levels
