We have undertaken a comprehensive survey of Harrogate’s cycle network (the town, not the District). Our sugestions for bringing it up to a good standard are in our Harrogate Cycle Infrastructure Plan, which is organised by zones.
We have shared all the zone plans with North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC), and we hope the result will be that they produce and adopt a more detailed and ambitious Local Cycling & Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP). Nevertheless these are our documents, not NYCC’s, and therefore should not be regarded as agreed council strategy or policy.
Users Manual
- The routes are based on the Cycle Network Map produced by consultants WSP for North Yorkshire County Council. The map is part of NYCC’s Harrogate Cycle Infrastructure Plan, so is agreed and accepted by them. We have made it easier to consult by adding the routes (plus a few extra ones in blue) to a Google map.
- We welcome comments about the zone plans; please give us your views in the comments section of the relevant zone page.
