reinstated.
Reasons for the decision:
Following public consultation feedback and
results regarding a number of proposed options to deliver a
constructed off-road cycle route, from Cold Bath Road. Arthurs
Avenue to the town centre.
Alternative options considered:
An alternative option would have been to
continue with the construction of phase 2 cycle route along Otley
Road. As part of the consultation feedback a number of options to
deliver the off-road cycle route were considered. The outcome of
the consultation was considered and discussed. Given the lack of
significant support for any of the Phase 2 or Beech Grove options
the recommendation of the report was that the implementation of the
Phase 2 Cycle Route is not taken forward. It was recommended that
Officers develop a package of ‘Sustainable Transport
Measures’ for the West of Harrogate, in line with the
remit of the National Productivity Investment Fund for the West of
Harrogate and that this is reported to the Harrogate and
Knaresborough Area Constituency Committee.
