Company activities and impact

Active Travel Tynedale (AcTT) continued to campaign for better active travel infrastructure on a number of fronts. We kicked off the new accounting year with a Footway Accessibility Audit in Wall, following it up with a letter to the County Council’s Highways Improvement department suggesting ways that the footways could be made more accessible for those with reduced mobility. This led to Highways Improvement providing the parish council with an estimate of the cost of widening the village’s principal footway. In February, AcTT members organised an electric bike event and attended a sustainability workshop hosted by Sycamore Net Zero (SNZ). Later that month we received an update from Highways Improvement on pedestrian safety at the Hexham Academies. The officers’ opinion was that a School Street wasn’t appropriate, but in our reply we made it clear that we disagreed. We received no further communication from Highways Improvement, but continued to work closely with parents, teachers and the Bicycle Mayor to discourage parents from driving their children to school and promote the benefits of active travel. In March, AcTT members attended a follow-up SNZ workshop and manned a stall at a net zero fair (at which we encouraged visitors to take quizzes on the benefits of active travel and the harm that motor vehicles do to wildlife). Later that month we made a video highlighting how dangerous some junctions remained for pedestrians, despite the January 2022 Highway Code changes. In May we conducted a Footway Accessibility Audit in Wark, as usual following it up with a letter to the County Council’s Highways Improvement department. That month the co-director who represents AcTT on the North Tyne Greenway Steering Group submitted an application for funding for a feasibility study and attended the County Show in order to promote the greenway. In July, AcTT members supported a Wheels for All inclusive cycling event at Wentworth Leisure Centre, met with the Hexham Youth Initiative to discuss bringing a pump track to town, were trained to pilot Hexham’s new Community Cargo Bike, helped the Tynedale Bicycle Mayor with a cycle survey and designed an AcTT logo. In September we arranged and attended a site visit to look at accessibility issues at two Tyne Valley railway stations, contributed to a BBC article on the subject, met with our new MP, celebrated International Car Free Day and supported the Tynedale Bicycle Mayor’s “On Yer Bike Tynedale” festival of cycling. In October, AcTT members organised a second electric bike event and in November we attended a Tynedale Cycling Strategy workshop and launched the Community Cargo Bike at Hexham Farmers’ Market. AcTT members attended Local Area Committee meetings throughout the year. In May we pushed for more to be done to improve pedestrian safety on Allendale Road, and in September we pushed back on a Highways Improvement officer’s motonormative thinking. The LAC also received presentations from the Tynedale Bicycle Mayor, on the Tynedale Cycling Strategy and from the Thomas Pocklington Trust (on how to improve footways for blind and partially-sighted people). AcTT members also applied for funding for a feasibility study for an active travel route from Hexham to Haydon Bridge and began a conversation with landowners along the proposed route. Other AcTT members conducted Community Speedwatch at various locations across Tynedale. We held ten meetings over the year and maintained a regular Facebook presence, supporting initiatives such as the Borderline Greenway and Cycle With Jan and promoting the Rights of Way Improvement Plan (RoWIP) and NE Transport Plan consultations.

Consultation with stakeholders

Active Travel Tynedale (AcTT) attended three county council events: a Hexham Community Cargo Bike meeting in June, a Hexham to Corbridge active travel route showcase event in July and a Haltwhistle active travel “link route” consultation event in November. We also promoted the North East Transport Plan consultation, which was launched towards the end of the accounting year. The AcTT co-director who is also a County Councillor attended four Northumberland Cycling, Walking & Wheeling Board (NCWWB) meetings, where he provided updates on AcTT’s activities, pushed for the NCWWB’s Terms of Reference and Our Ways vision for walking and cycling to be updated and called for clarity on whether the Hexham to Corbridge active travel route would involve the loss of trees. He continued to promote active travel through membership of the council’s Communities & Place Scrutiny Committee, Climate Change Working Group and Local Access Forum (LAF). Through the LAF he influenced the new RoWIP and showed support for the Borderline Greenway by attending a site visit. He also attended Climate Action Newbrough and Fourstones meetings, was interviewed by BBC Politics North regarding the dualling of the A1, delivered a presentation for Haydon Bridge Nature Club on the harms that motor vehicles do to wildlife and engaged with the North Tyne & Redesdale Community Partnership (regarding the North Tyne Greenway) and with Sustrans officers (on a number of active travel initiatives).
