According to a spokesperson for the council, it has some “Levelling Up” funding from the Government available to improve walking and cycling in this area as part of its Quiet Routes project.
“We have asked Lidl to undertake the cycleway improvements as a part of their Section 278 [agreed highway improvement] works, with a contribution from our project, as it will be more efficient and cost-effective for the works to be delivered at the same time,” they said.
