Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2017 – 2027: Improving and Maintaining Off-Road Routes Draft Stockport Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2017 – 2027: Improving and Maintaining Off-road Routes. 1. Introduction 1.1. Background 1.1.1. The Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 (section 60) requires all highway authorities to prepare a Rights of Way Improvement Plan (ROWIP) every 10 years. This includes making a new assessment of the network and reviewing the previous plan including consulting with the public. The plan considers all rights of way off road that the public are able to utilise. Examples include routes in parks, concessionary paths, public rights of way and access space. Right of Way Type Users Public Right of Way Footpath Other Footpaths e.g. routes concessionary in parks, alleyways etc. Cycle Track Bridleway Restricted Byways Byway Open to all Traffic Access Land * (*access land may allow cycling or horse riding on a case by case basis) 1.2. Context and scope of plan 1.2.1. The ROWIP sets out: the links to the 2040 Transport Strategy and other strategic documents and plans; an assessment of the network and the value of the network for health, transport, recreation and utility as well as opportunities to improve the network; our support for wider diversity of access to the path network; our action plan, with an indication of the resources and timescale required; to identify and encourage the partnerships needed in the development and delivery of the action plan, and how we will monitor implementation of the plan. 1.3. Setting the scene - area profile 1.3.1. Stockport stretches from the borders of the Peak District National Park to Manchester, covering an area of 126km2. Stockport is one of the ten metropolitan districts of Greater Manchester and lies in the south-eastern part of the conurbation at the junction of the Cheshire Plain and the Pennine foothills. Stockport has an estimated population of 286,800 (Office of National Statistics (ONS)) and is home to an estimated 16,000 businesses. Stockport is a major economic player within the North West region and working hard to further improve its town centres economic position in the Greater Manchester area. Over 1/3 of residence travel under 5km to work which means they could feasibly be encouraged to walk or cycle to work (Census 2011). 1.3.2. There are 992km of road in the borough of Stockport, consisting of 12km of motorway, 84km of ‘A’ roads, 38km of ‘B’ road, 43 km of other classified road and a further 814km of other unclassified roads. The average daily flow per km is 111.200, vehicles on motorways, 20,500 on ‘A’ roads, and 12,300 on ‘B’ roads. (Source: DSD REPORT 1885 Transport Statistics Stockport 2015). The Public Rights of Way network is 268 km long. In Stockport there are at least 146 recognised green spaces totalling 1816 hectares in the borough of which only 29 green spaces are formal parks with a total area of 360 hectares. Greenspaces and parks with their mixture of footpaths paths and other routes connecting them to the areas they serve also form part of the rights of way network. 1.3.3. Stockport’s residents and businesses benefit from good access to the motorway (M60) and major road (A6, A34) networks that pass through the Borough. These road networks link Stockport with Manchester City Centre, Manchester Airport and the wider Region. The soon to be opened A6 to Manchester Airport Relief Road, including its walking and cycling facilities, will soon further improve this interconnectivity. 1.3.4. These roads cope with a variety of demands including longer distance commuters to Manchester, and work and shopping trips to Stockport Town and District Centres. Congestion is evident at specific locations across the Borough, rather than along whole routes, at various times through the day. The Council is working to improve the road network to ameliorate these issues. Part of this involves reducing the use of motorised vehicles for shorter journeys both by improving facilities on the roads and improving and advertising the off road network. 1.3.5. There are currently 19 railway stations within the Stockport MBC boundary. Analysis of passenger data indicates that these stations account for almost 12% of entry and exit passenger numbers travelling within Greater Manchester. This rises to 24% if Manchester Piccadilly, Oxford Road and Victoria are excluded. (Stockport Rail Strategy January 2015) These stations give access to the wider area for leisure and recreation including paths and greenspaces but improving access to these stations by walking and cycling is also seen as important to reduce congestion and parking needs at the stations. 1.3.6. Stockport bus station, adjacent to the rail station and the Mersey Way Shopping Centre, is the hub of Stockport’s bus network. Buses from the town centre are available to all parts of Stockport, Manchester City Centre, the Airport and Cheshire and Derbyshire and beyond. There are plans to develop a new interchange on the site of the current bus station. This would be designed to allow for a potential Metrolink route development in the future. The update to the interchange will also allow for an improved route for the Trans Pennine Trail. These bus routes also give access to the wider area for leisure and recreation including paths and greenspaces. 1.3.7. Stockport is undertaking a large re development of the town centre. Investing in Growth with around £1 billion invested into a range of ambitious projects launched across Stockport by the Council and partners, each aimed at ensuring Stockport continues to grow. Estimates predict that this work will bring at least 5,000 new jobs and 1,100 new homes to Stockport. As part of this improvements to the transport network aim to support lower carbon travel and improve wellbeing by providing improved facilities for pedestrians, cyclists and public transport, and improved linkage between the rail station and town centre; improve road safety through a reallocation of road space in the town centre, better traffic management and improved pedestrian/cycle links with surrounding residential areas. This will assist in encouraging residents to travel sustainably and make an important improvement to the rights of way network to the east of the town centre with a new bridge across the River Goyt in to Woodbank Park. 2. Consultation and community involvement 2.1. Initial Review and Consultation 2.1.1. The Council has reviewed the current network, the delivery of the last ROWIP and undertaken a consultation to develop an assessment of the network. The assessment considers the extent to which the current network meets the needs of the user and the opportunities to provide access for the mobility impaired. The preparation of the initial assessment included consultation with the public. The consultation took place via a questionnaire that was on the Internet and emailed to interested parties such as those known to be involved in the use of public rights of way or sustainable modes of travel. The consultation took place for 6 weeks between the 6th February and 17th March 2017. It obtained the public's views on: Why they used Rights of Way (including off road routes not formally designated as public rights of way such as routes in parks and alleyways) How often they use rights of way (including off road routes not formally designated as public rights of way such as routes in parks and alleyways) What types of modes they used on the rights of way What types of modes they used to access rights of way How they find out about routes What they most valued in terms of rights of way maintenance and looked for in terms of facilities What they would be willing to do to support the maintenance and promotion of the use of routes 2.1.2. Consultation, while not formalised, also includes the views and information that officers have gained from contact with the public at the ongoing Cycling, Walking and Stockport Disability Transport and Access Forums, Local Area Access Forum, ongoing discussion with the Director Of Public Health and issues discussed at the Safer Stockport Partnership and the Positive Path Management Group which are attended by the Police. 2.2. Future Consultation 2.2.1. The draft ROWIP will be subject to a 12 week statutory public consultation period, which runs from 16th of October 2017 to the 8th of January 2018. Comments will be invited from residents, our partners, user groups, and other interested agencies. All comments will be considered and appropriate amendments will be included in the final ROWIP. 2.2.2. The progress of the ROWIP will continue to be monitored for success via the Transport Annual Monitoring Report process which advises the overall asset management plan. 3. Vision 3.1. Stockport’s Rights of Way network will facilitate both recreational and utility travel for a range of users both from within the borough and those passing through it. Stockport Council recognises the potential of its urban and rural rights of way for safer sustainable travel routes for utility and recreational trips. The improvement and development of these routes is also seen as an important method of reducing congestion and pollution on Stockport’s road network and promoting and improving health and wellbeing of Stockport residents. 3.2. This approach will be balanced with the need to address issues surrounding Crime and Anti-Social Behaviour and the processes used by the Safer Stockport Partnership to tackle these. 3.3. The approach will be in line with the Council’s Plan and the aims of the Greater Manchester Transport Strategy 2040. 4. Links to other plans, policies and strategies 4.1.
