Description

Following a successful four year programme of Active Access walking and cycling initiatives being delivered in East Sussex, an invitation to apply for Grant funding for 21/22 has been received from the DFT to provide similar initiatives for walking and cycling programmes. The service are in the process of making their application for an allocated sum of funding.
The COVID-19 pandemic has also had huge impact on the way people work, socialise and, ultimately, travel. For some people and organisations this has meant that they have been able to re-think about how they travel and cycling and walking has become more of an option.
The key objectives of the programme will be to support: -
o economic recovery and the levelling up of local areas
o health and wellbeing
o net zero carbon emissions
o greater linkages between infrastructure and initiatives

To support the above the service proposes to run an active travel engagement project, with three Lots ; one having an emphasis on cycling , one on walking, and one to project manage the programme. There will be a focus on delivering a range of initiatives to support an increase in active travel for everyday journeys.
