Sefton Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan - Adopted January 2026

Help shape Sefton’s walking, wheeling and cycling future

Sefton Council developed a policy to improve walking, wheeling, and cycling within the community. The policy is called the Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan, also referred to as the 'LCWIP'.  It shows where improvements are needed for safer, more accessible routes for everyone.

This survey is gathered views and ideas from the public about our ideas for new Active Travel routes. 

 

 

We recommend you read the LCWIP Summary PDF below, so you have a full understanding of what the LCWIP wants to achieve in Sefton.

Why are we doing this?

The plan will help us get essential funding from the Government to make improvements and can support healthier choices in how we travel.

What does Sefton’s Waking and Cycling Plan aim to do?

  • Build safe and welcoming walking and cycling routes for everyone.
  • Help more children and young people walk or cycle to school.
  • Remove barriers so routes are accessible to all ages and abilities.
  • Support Sefton’s goal to be carbon neutral by 2030.
  • Choose routes that are the highest priority and plan how to deliver them.
