Core Strategy Preferred Approaches

Representation ID: 119

Received: 07/07/2008

Representation Summary:

The strategy makes no mention of equestrian use. The March 2005 HBC Parks and Open Spaces questionnaire showed that 39.3% of people want more Bridleways & off-road cycleways. The proposed paths without equestrian access only meets the cycleway need and does not address the bridleway need of residents. The results also showed that 34.1% of people would like the quality of current Bridleways & off-road cycleways improved. The proposed routes radiate from the town centre, the routes should be expanded to include routes around the edge of the town and borough boundary.
