WSCC Consultation Survey For The Proposed Dale Ave, Hassocks, Improvement Scheme

As part of the Government’s Active Travel Fund (ATF) initiative the County Council is consulting interested parties regarding a number of improvements across West Sussex.

Following successful bids to Central Government the County Council has subsequently secured DfT funding to deliver 6 schemes that support its approach to active travel that aim to:

• make walking and cycling to work, education and leisure activities more attractive
• improve health and wellbeing by offering eco-friendly travel choices
• broaden travel choices by offering safer, quick and easy walking and cycling options, particularly for short journeys
• support zero emission journeys and reduce reliance on car travel.

These proposed improvements are included in the WSCC Cycling and Walking Strategy as a priority together with forming part of the West Sussex Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP). The £850,000 schemes will help create links with local communities and encourage walking and cycling to and from schools.

WSCC is now seeking views from local communities to gather data on how these schemes will be received if the proposed changes were to go ahead.
