- Enhance the borough’s walking networks by providing footways, routes and public realm that enable access through development sites and adjoining areas; and
- Ensure routes and access are safe and designed to be inclusive and meet the needs of all pedestrians, with particular emphasis on disabled people and the mobility impaired. Street furniture must be located to allow the movement of pushchairs, wheelchairs and mobility scooters; and
- Ensure that disruption of walking routes during construction is minimised and any diversions are convenient and clearly signposted; and
- Enhance strategic networks such as the Green Chain walking route, the Low Line and support new and existing green links across the borough and sub-regionally.
