Access for pedestrians and cyclists is essential in all areas of Dudley. Maintenance is poor and must be improved. Canal routes need improving for people to use.

Respondent: TfWM and WMCA

This is strongly welcomed as a policy but we encourage more explicit mention of partnership working with TfWM and the WMCA.
We also encourage exploration of facilities for cycling that are more than just parking. This can include bike repair stations, showers and lockers for cyclists especially at their workplaces, charging infrastructure for electric bikes, etc together with opportunity for innovation in road space, such as side road zebra crossings, table junctions or shared streets, with policies promoting the trialling of these.

As identified above the canal network has a major contributory role in the promotion of sustainable travel and modal shift and we welcome mention of our network within section 4c of Policy DLP71 Active Travel. Similarly, we welcome our mention as a major delivery partner in this agenda.
