National Strategy
4. NationalTarget
We aim to double cycling, where cycling
activity is measured as the estimated total number
of cycle stages made each year, from 0.8 billion
stages in 2013 to 1.6 billion stages in 2025.
5. • Determining Scope
• Gathering Information
• Network Planning for Cycling
• Network Planning for Walking
• Prioritising Improvements
• Integration and Application
Process
6 stages of LCWIP development
6. LCWIP Route
Classification
Primary: High flows of cyclists are forecast along desire
lines that link large residential areas to trip attractors such
as a town or city centre.
Secondary: Medium flows of cyclists are forecast along
desire lines that link to trip attractors such as schools,
colleges and employment sites.
Local: Lower flows of cyclists are forecast along desire
lines that cater for local cycle trips, often providing links to
primary or secondary desire lines.
7. Propensity to CycleTool
“The Propensity to CycleTool can assist with the
preparation of Local Cycling andWalking
Infrastructure Plans and will be of particular
assistance in defining potential demand for cycling,
identifying the most promising routes and areas for
investment, and estimating future capacity needs
for route and area-based measures”.
9. • Used ‘Government Target’ scenario and ‘Route
network’ output
• Generated route maps for 14 main settlements
• Modified these based on local trip generators and
attractors
• Included our maintenance priority data
PCT Application
11. • Each LCWIP has a funded 3-year programme of
minor schemes (2018-2021) agreed with local
elected representatives
• Without specific government funding, we allocate
Integrated Transport Block Grant (£2.2m over 3
years) supported by maintenance funding
• 2021-2024 programme will be developed over
next 12 months
LCWIP Programmes
12. • Continue to implement LCWIP programmes
• Consult on next programme
• Hope for funding
What’s next?
