Walking, wheeling and cycling in Ceredigion - have your say!

The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 requires all local authorities in Wales to continuously improve and increase their active travel routes and plan how routes will join up to form networks so that people can more easily get around by bicycle or as a pedestrian for their everyday journeys to work, school and other local destinations.

The consultation focuses on the main towns of Aberystwyth, Cardigan and Lampeter, which have been selected by the Welsh Government as the designated Active Travel localities in the County.

Following a period of public engagement the legislation requires councils to undertake statutory consultation to give the public the opportunity to check their opinions have been taken on board. This is the stage Ceredigion County Council has reached. We are now asking:

  • Have we identified the correct routes for improvement (future routes)?
  • Are we correct in our assessment of routes that already meet the agreed standards (existing routes)?
  • Have we identified all the appropriate new routes?

How to Take Part

Please explore the interactive map below and share your views before it is submitted to the Welsh Government for approval.

If your feedback relates to a specific location, please ‘drop a pin’ on the map by selecting that location, or describe the street or area in your comment.

Please provide sufficient details to help us consider your comments fully, for example: if you think a dropped kerb is required on a footway to assist with wheeling accessibility, please provide details and description of the location.

2) Are we correct in our assessment of routes that already meet the agreed standards (existing routes)?
3) Do you think the network of proposed (future) routes shown on this map will encourage you to walk, wheel and/or cycle more for everyday journeys?
4) Are there routes missing from the proposed network that would help you make every-day active travel journeys?

Impact on the Welsh Language

In Wales, the law requires us to ask the following questions about impact on the Welsh language.

Do you think that improving the active travel routes in Ceredigion will have an effect on opportunities for people to use the Welsh language, or on the status of the Welsh language within the community?

Equality Monitoring Questions

You do not have to answer these questions. They help us to check that we have collected the views of a broad range of people that truly reflect the population in Ceredigion. The information will only be used for statistical analysis.

2. What is your sex? A question about gender identity will follow.
3. Is the gender you identify with the same as your sex registered at birth?
4. Which of the following best describes how you think of yourself?
5. How would you describe your national identity?
6. How would you describe your ethnic group?
7. What is your religion or belief?

9. Do have a long term physical or mental health condition or illness that reduces your ability to carry out day-to-day activities?
10. What is your preferred language?
