Sevenoaks District Council
You may be aware that Sevenoaks District Council (SDC) and Kent County Council (KCC) are working together in partnership to deliver a new cycle route that connects the east and west of Sevenoaks town, allowing residents to walk, wheel and cycle safely as an alternative to using their cars for short journeys. It will provide a safe, environmentally friendly alternative to the car, helping to improve our health and air quality while cutting our carbon footprint.
Public consultation on the Sevenoaks Town East to West Walking, Wheeling and Cycling Route will commence on Thursday 1 June 2023 and runs for 6 weeks, concluding at midnight on Friday 14 July 2023. The consultation aims to raise awareness of the proposed route and gives residents the opportunity to input into the design before it is finalised.
Full details of the public consultation, including a map of the route, background documents and detailed drawings, as well as the online survey, will be available on the Council’s website at www.sevenoaks.gov.uk/walkwheelcycle from Thursday 1 June 2023.
We have also arranged two public ‘drop in’ sessions where you can view the proposals. Officers from Sevenoaks District Council and from Kent County Council will be on hand to answer your questions:
• Tuesday 6 June from 1pm to 4pm (Sevenoaks District Council Offices, Argyle Road, Sevenoaks, TN13 1HG)
• Wednesday 12 July from 5pm to 8pm (Sevenoaks District Council Offices, Argyle Road, Sevenoaks, TN13 1HG)
Should you have any queries regarding the nature of the consultation, please do not hesitate to contact - The Strategic Planning Team, Sevenoaks District Council.
