All residents are invited to attend
AGENDA
1 To consider Lincolnshire County Council’s proposal as follows and formulate a reply:-
Nettleham to Sudbrooke active travel quiet route
The proposed scheme would see a single point closure on Sudbrooke Lane, to the west of Richmond Farm, in order to create a safe walking and cycling route between the villages of Sudbrooke and Nettleham.
If taken forward, a closure will be installed midway along Sudbrooke Lane and will be implemented by using high-quality temporary infrastructure, such as traffic planters.
If it is supported by the public, this scheme would initially be installed temporarily for between a year and 18 months. After this time and following further engagement with local residents and organisations, a decision would be made about whether to make it permanent.

Subject: Nettleham & Sudbrooke / Active Travel Fund survey launches today
Dear colleague,
Starting today, we will be seeking the views of residents, businesses and organisations on plans to create an active travel quiet route between Nettleham and Sudbrooke.
The Department for Transport (DfT) awarded Lincolnshire £799,900 to be used to give people more opportunities to choose walking and cycling for their day-to-day journeys, to boost active travel and reduce traffic congestion.
As part of the second round of funding, we’ve developed the prospective scheme below to potentially take forward:
Nettleham to Sudbrooke active travel quiet route
The proposed scheme would see a single point closure on Subrooke Lane, to the west of Richmond Farm, in order to create a safe walking and cycling route between the villages of Sudbrooke and Nettleham.
If taken forward, a closure will be installed midway along Sudbrooke Lane and will be implemented by using high-quality temporary infrastructure, such as traffic planters.
Nettleham Active Travel Projects
- Cross St Low Traffic Neighbourhood – A point closure using traffic planters will be implemented midway along Cross Street to stop through motor traffic and allow an improved walking and cycling space
- Church Street One Way System – A one way west to east route along Church Street to reduce motor traffic flows in the vicinity of the CoOp and encourage walking and cycling
We’re now ready to engage on this to make sure it’s appropriate and fit-for-purpose before we start the process of implementing a trial. We encourage anyone potentially affected by this to complete our online survey and share their thoughts.
Views and opinions can be shared at www.letstalk.lincolnshire.gov.uk. The survey closes on Friday 17 December.
If it is supported by the public, this scheme would initially be installed temporarily for between a year and 18 months. After this time and following further engagement with local residents and organisations, a decision would be made about whether to make it permanent.
Like the other schemes we’re trialling throughout the county, the hope is that for every journey we can make active travel a viable option for, we'll take a car off the road and reduce congestion and pollution for all of us.
Other ideas for pavement widening, new cycleways or road closures can be submitted online at www.widenmypath.com, which allows users to pinpoint where they would like to see changes.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Many Thanks
Richard
