A letter has been sent to residents in Marlow about a proposed "quietway” trial on Trinity Road.
This is because Buckinghamshire Council has been approached by the South West Chilterns Community Board about the possibility of a “quietway” for an initial trial duration of six months.
They have been awarded £514,000 by the Department for Transport for a programme of temporary active travel schemes across the County.

These temporary schemes are trials, with the aim of helping people to make local journeys on foot or by bike for travelling to work, schools, shopping and leisure activities.
Other places such as Amersham, Aylesbury, Buckingham, Chalfont St Peter to Gerrards, Haddenham, and High Wycombe are part of the initial plans of the scheme.
A "quietway" uses point closures to help create a quieter street for everyone, encouraging cycling and walking through a quieter street whilst still maintaining access by car to properties, for yourself and other local residents and businesses.

As part of the proposed scheme, additional signage will be installed to improve integration with the existing cycle route through the park, which joins Trinity Road, and lining on the road within the area of the point closures will be refreshed.
Feedback on the proposal is required by March 9 and come be submitted here.
