Harlow Sustainable Transport Corridors

To support the development of the North to Centre Sustainable Transport Corridor scheme, we invited members of the public and interested parties to view and give their thoughts on the proposals. Thank you to everyone who took the time to participate.

The feedback provided on the design, and comments raised during our webinar sessions will be considered as the scheme continues to develop, and themes such as cyclist behaviour, pedestrian safety and bike security are areas which we will be looking to address where possible as the design develops.

Landscaping and the impact on the avenues of trees and the Town Park were also raised and we will continue to work closely with Harlow District Council and the Harlow Town Park Users Group in the future.

Please view the story map below for information about the North to Centre proposals. If you have any questions about the STC scheme please email the team.
