The Bath Walking, Wheeling and Cycling Links (BWWCL) scheme is one of several City Region Sustainable Transport Settlements (CRSTS) projects being developed in Bath. It aims to provide continuous cycle routes, as well as walking and wheeling improvements, designed to connect key areas in Bath.
The four routes will create more than 6.2km of cycling routes. They include advisory cycle lanes, dedicated spaces and routes with less traffic. The scheme will also provide improvements, such as crossings, to make walking and wheeling safer and easier.
The scheme will give people more ways to travel, healthier places and people, and improve links to and from the city centre.
