Have your say on new cycle link schemes
Residents are being urged to comment on two new proposed cycle link schemes in the borough - one in Eastleigh town centre and one on Bursledon Road. Both schemes are being brought forward by Hampshire County Council.
Eastleigh Town Centre Cycle Route
These proposals aim to improve the route from Wide Lane via Desborough Road into Eastleigh town centre. The improvements will include both new and enhanced provision for cyclists and pedestrians in addition to connecting existing cycle and pedestrian infrastructure. The aim of this scheme is to improve, walking and cycling for those travelling between Southampton and Eastleigh. A key aim of this scheme is to encourage people to leave the car at home and either walk or cycle as a first choice of local travel.
The Eastleigh Town Centre Cycle Route feedback survey is now open and closes just before midnight on 20 August 2021.
