Walking, cycling and wheeling routes in development

We've completed the A413 Sustainable Travel Scheme between Buckingham, Winslow and the future station at Winslow. We've identified a future active travel network in the Buckingham Transport Strategy.

We have secured funding government funding and Active Travel England to deliver improvements to the former railway line between the A421 and the Tingewick Road. The works will include upgrades to the path along its entire length and new safe crossings on the A421 and Tingewick Road. We are working with partners in Buckingham Town Council and the University of Buckingham to develop the scheme. This route will connect with the A413 Sustainable Travel Scheme.

We are exploring opportunities to improve north-south active travel connections between Stoke Mandeville Stadium, Hospital and railway station. We are working with housing developers and Network Rail to identify potential route alignments for further study.

We are continuing to work with Oxfordshire County Council to investigate an active travel link connecting Haddenham and Thame. Both councils have committed funding and resources to further development work on the scheme and are continuing to investigate it during 2025 to provide information that can inform future decisions by elected Councillors.

Both councils acknowledge there is a longstanding local desire to see an active travel link achieved between these settlements and have included such a link within their respective county-wide active travel network plans, providing cross-border policy support. At this stage, it is anticipated that delivery of such a link would require significant funding, and these supporting policies could help to support future funding applications. However, projects of this nature are complex and further investigative work is required before this can be fully determined. Once further information can be shared publicly it will be made available so residents and other interested parties can be informed.

We've completed a feasibility study to identify improvements to walking and cycling connections in the Denham area, including between Denham railway station, Denham Green and Hertfordshire. We're working with local partners in the Colne Valley area to refine our options.

We are developing a scheme to provide active travel connections between Pinewood Studios, Iver Heath, Iver, Iver Station and Richings Park. This links into wider aspirations to improve connectivity with Denham, Slough, Uxbridge and Heathrow Airport.
