Haringey’s Draft Walking and Cycling Action Plan consultation
This consultation is closed
This consultation ran from 8 November 2021 to 10 January 2022 and is now closed. Thank you to everyone who took the time to give us their views.
We consulted on our draft Walking and Cycling Action Plan (WCAP) to drive our active travel agenda, improve the health and well-being of residents, and tackle climate change by reducing reliance on private motor cars.
The WCAP is part of our commitment to the Haringey Transport Strategy 2018 and to the Mayor of London’s Transport strategy 2018 (external link).
We set out how we will deliver these aspirations and enable more walking and cycling in the borough. We want to make our communities feel proud and make our streets healthier and safer, to fulfil our ambitions for being a walking and cycling borough both regionally and nationally.
We invited the community to help us develop the proposals to enable better, safer and increased walking and cycling in Haringey.
The consultation is an important step towards delivering improved walking and cycling networks, which has the potential to bring significant benefits for our local communities.
Next steps
Following the public consultation, we are reviewing the responses and amending the draft WCAP accordingly. The draft WCAP will be reported back to Cabinet in Spring/Summer 2022 for adoption.
If you have any comments or questions, please do not hesitate to email us at transport.planning@haringey.gov.uk
We are also interested in building a database of interested persons, groups, and businesses in the area who wish to be kept up to date on the development of the draft WCAP. Please use the email address above to give us your details.
