KENDAL VISION - INSPIRATION FOR CHANGE IN KENDAL

1 2 4 5 6 7 3 QUOTE FROM WORKSHOP PARTICIPANT (4TH OCTOBER 2019) “Everybody would use buses more if tickets weren’t so expensive!” Create mountain bike centre at Benson Knott, perhaps with cable car. Free Park & Ride at four strategic locations. Could encourage A591 bypass users to stop and go into town. ‘Park & Stride’ and ‘Walking Bus’ also desirable. Poor public transport offer: trains are few and go at inconvenient times. Buses tickets are extremely expensive. Town centre one-way system is very inconvenient. HANDS-ON PLANNING GROUPS GROUP 2: BUSES & BIKES Outlying neighbourhoods: Hallgarth, Collinfield, Heron Hill, and Sandylands poorly served by public transport. The need for better bike parking facilities in the town centre, at the station, and in schools. Extend cycle path along old canal route and elsewhere. The need for better demarcation as cyclists presently take pedestrians by surprise. KENDAL VISION 2020 | THE EVENT THAT CHANGED KENDAL 128
