An initiative to promote the Pier to Pier Way as a valuable commuting option is underway thanks to a partnership between North Somerset Council and Sustrans, a charity dedicated to making it easier for everyone to walk, wheel, and cycle.
Following a six-week public consultation in February and March this year, Bath & North East Somerset Council received many responses from communities across Bath & North East Somerset providing vital feedback on the Somer Valley Links (SVL) proposals.
Plans for the next steps to improve major transport routes in the city are set to be considered as part of the proposed multi-million pound investment in Bristol’s highways.
Avon Bridge on Brunel Way (A3029) is set to close overnight in alternate directions for ten nights in March, to allow the council to carry out essential maintenance work to replace an expansion joint that has failed.
Works to make a simple but effective change at Weston Interchange, allowing for more flexible and efficient bus movements, started on Monday 10 March for three weeks.
This package would start on 1 April 2025 and run until 31 March 2026. It would represent a £1.3 million investment from the Mayoral Combined Authority’s Bus Grant allocation and further funding from that of North Somerset Council: supporting more people to travel cheaply – or for free – and sustainably by public transport.
