Safer, more connected walking and cycling routes start with your input

Brighton Council is developing the Active Transport Strategy 2025–2035 to make walking and cycling safer, easier, and better connected. The draft strategy includes proposed footpaths, crossings, and cycling links—connecting homes, schools, shops, and open spaces.

It also outlines supporting strategies, policies, and upgrade priorities to guide future investment.
