Gloucestershire Countywide Cycling Improvement Plan
Engagement has concluded
Gloucestershire County Council has developed cycling and walking networks and identified some improvements in line with government guidance, which focuses on town centres. More broadly and in anticipation of an increased use of e-bikes, which enable longer journeys up steeper gradients, Gloucestershire want to develop a county wide network of cycling corridors that link the county’s more rural towns and villages.
This consultation shows a map of where people want to go across the county, based on travel demand and the potential for more cycling. The lines represent suggested corridors that have been identified through initial analysis.
Let us know what you think of the corridors and desire lines and whether you think there are any that we have missed.
Please note that these are corridors suggested for the purpose of consultation only. Whilst we are identifying cycle routes we’d like to see developed, there is no guarantee at this stage of funding or inclusion in our plans
***Please note that if you have difficulty reading maps, then please select the 'survey' tab below, where you will be able to see the full list of corridors and give feedback on them, if you would like to comment directly on the maps, please select the 'maps' tab below.

Corridors/Desire Lines
This map shows the key desire lines across the county based on demand and the potential for mode shift towards cycling from other modes of transport.
The solid green lines represent suggested corridors that have been identified through initial analysis

Routes
This map shows the routes that have been created by mapping the desire lines onto the existing road and Public Right of Way network. Opportunities such as disused railway lines and canal towpaths have also been utilised in places.
The solid red lines represent suggested routes that match the corridors identified
The red dashed lines represent suggested routes that match these corridors but where there is more than one suitable route option to consider
Let us know if you have any comments on the routes or alternative suggestions!
