Everyday Active Travel: The Urban Delivery Plan
Date published:
Everyday Active Travel: The Urban Delivery Plan outlines the Department's plans to deliver improvements for pedestrians and cyclists within urban towns and cities. It complements the Belfast Cycling Network Delivery Plan and the Strategic Plan for Greenways to provide a firm basis for prioritising delivery of improved active travel infrastructure.
The Plan identifies over 140 kilometres of priority routes to be delivered in the next 10 years, connecting over 280,000 people to key everyday destinations including 118 schools, 33 town centres and 17 public transport hubs. The priority programme represents investment of between £140 million and £280 million, based on the current estimated average cost per kilometre of delivering high-quality active travel infrastructure.
The Plan also identifies almost 1,000 kilometres of additional corridors for future delivery beyond the priority programme, providing planners and developers with a long-term vision for a more sustainable transport network within our towns and cities. Development of these routes over time will deliver an increasingly connected network, allowing active travel to become a serious practical alternative to the private car for many shorter journeys.
