The consultation focusses on shorter urban journeys in Workington, but we also welcome feedback on journeys to and from surrounding communities. Details of the proposed routes are included in this consultation document. We want you to provide feedback on these proposals so we can develop the best possible Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan for Workington. Please take the time to get involved, read this consultation document and provide your feedback. Background Cumbria County Council and Allerdale Borough Council are working together to deliver the shared ambition to increase cycling and walking in the Workington area in line with the Government's 'Gear Change: A Bold Vision for Cycling and Walking' (July 2020) document. The Gear Change sets out a vision for travel revolution in England’s streets, towns and communities: “Because the potential benefits are huge: Increasing cycling and walking can help tackle some of the most challenging issues we face as a society - improving air quality, combatting climate change, improving health and wellbeing, addressing inequalities and tackling congestion on our roads. Bold action will help to create places we want to live and work - with better connected, healthier and more sustainable communities. It will help deliver clean growth, by supporting local businesses, as well as helping ensure prosperity can spread across the country and level up our nation”. A large proportion of the residential population in Workington also work in the area. There is significant potential for more journeys to be made by walking and cycling if the right conditions are put in place. The implementation of good quality cycling and walking infrastructure is key to getting more people to walk and cycle. Many of us recognise the challenges of climate change and the urgent need to act. We know that being active is good for us and as more of us have been walking and cycling throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, we would like to encourage this to continue. As part of this partnership working we are developing a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan (LCWIP) for Workington. This will identify a cycling and walking network and the improvements identified will make it easier for everyone, regardless of age or ability to feel confident that they can walk or cycle. The improvements identified in the LCWIP will be used to help to secure funding. Delivery of the improvements is subject to funding being secured. 3 Development and delivery of the Plan The Workington LCWIP aims to support green growth through improving connectivity within the town for everyday short journeys. Suggested cycling routes have been identified alongside the existing cycling routes and a draft priority cycling network is presented as part of this consultation. The Workington LCWIP proposes the following: • Improvements to the underpass and footway/cyclepath on Central Way near the leisure centre as identified in the Workington Town Deal. • Upgrading of active travel routes between the train station and the town centre to improve accessibility and onward travel. • Subject to successful funding, cycling and walking improvements in Curwen Park and Hall Brow as part of the Allerdale Borough Council £9.1m Levelling Up Fund bid. Having a clear plan for cycling and walking in Workington will provide the best chance of securing funding for future phases. 4 Workington Cycling and Walking Consultation Cycling Workington Existing Cycling Network Existing Cycling Network This is the Existing Cycling Network.

    Five Year Housing Land Supply as of 31st March 2019 1.0 Housing Requirement 1.1 Due to the under delivery of houses in Allerdale (for the areas outside the Lake District National Park Authority) (see Table 1), the Council considers it prudent that a 5% buffer is applied to the annual housing target, consistent with the Housing Delivery Test. The shortfall of dwellings will be addressed in the short term and therefore this buffer has been added to the five year land supply target in full, as per the Sedgefield method.

At a very late stage in the process, there was a successful legal challenge in connection with a procedural matter and the documents were quashed by the High Court. It is, therefore, necessary for the consultations to be repeated before the documents can be resubmitted to the Secretary of State. The challenge was about the inclusion, without a further round of consultations, of an Area of Search for sand and gravel known as M12 Roosecote quarry extension in Site Allocations Policy 7. This Area of Search was intended as a possible replacement for the nearby Roose sand and gravel quarry near Barrow in Furness, which is a Preferred Area in the policy.
