Dear all,Following a successful funding bid to National Highways, the Camberley-Frimley Cycleway project has funding in place to complete work required through to the end of the detailed design stage (producing designs which are construction ready). This work, which is planned to be carried out over the next 1 year (approximately) is underway and will include progressing the following:•	Progressing necessary consents to deliver proposals off the public highway. This includes agreeing the scope of proposals with Surrey Heath Borough Council where infrastructure is proposed on borough land.•	Developing detailed design drawings, taking into account feedback from the public consultation and further investigations into route alignment options where required. •	Finalising the scope of the infrastructure to be delivered through the project.•	Updating the cost estimates to construct infrastructure proposed. •	Completing a business case for construction funding and applying for construction funding – potentially later in 2023 subject to a funding window opportunity. Kind regards,Major Schemes Team

Further funding awarded to progress detailed design stage

Dear all,We are writing to provide an update on the Camberley-Frimley Cycleway scheme and public consultation. We have completed the analysis of all public consultation feedback; this is summarised in the consultation report accessible via the link below. <a href="https://s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/commonplace-customer-assets/camberleytofrimleycycleway/Camberley%20to%20Frimley%20Cycleway%20Consultation%20Report%20-%20May%202022.pdf">Camberley to Frimley Cycleway Consultation Report - May 2022.pdf</a> Progression of the scheme further, beyond the feasibility design work completed, will require further funding. We have made an application for detailed design funding. Subject to all the necessary approvals to proceed and funding being awarded, the detailed design stage would involve further investigation into the deliverability scheme elements where required (scheme scope is yet to be finalised), progressing consents needed for construction, and developing the designs of the scheme to greater detail, with consideration of issues identified during the consultation.Kind regards, Major Schemes Team <a href="https://s3-eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/commonplace-customer-assets/camberleytofrimleycycleway/Camberley%20to%20Frimley%20Cycleway%20Consultation%20Report%20-%20May%202022.pdf"></a>

Camberley to Frimley Cycleway route proposals

Please read the information below which provides the main details of our proposals. Click on the Plans under &quot;Additional materials&quot; to view these proposals on a map. You can have your say using the survey at the bottom of the page. Consultation period closes 21 November 2021. Park StreetSouth of the roundabout with Pembroke Broadway and Southwell Park Rd, traffic calming along Park Street is proposed to reduce speeds and achieve safer conditions for cycling on road. There is insufficient space to provide a continuous off-road path. Park Street would be signed as a cycle route, including road markings to warn drivers of the presence of cyclists.

The proposal is to sign an on-road cycle route along these roads (no cycle lanes would be marked). Park Rd toucan crossingA signalised toucan crossing (for pedestrians and cyclists) is proposed at the crossing point across Park Rd between Belmont Rd and Parkway. This is a key crossing point for joining up different sections of the proposed scheme. The crossing would allow cyclists as well as pedestrians to cross Park Rd to/from Belmont Rd and connect with either the route via Parkway and Verran Rd, or the proposed shared footway/cycleway on the south-eastern side of Park Rd. A toucan crossing is considered necessary based on the traffic volumes and speeds measured on Park Rd.

This infrastructure segregated from motor traffic is considered necessary based on the traffic volumes and speeds measured on Park Rd. The route would continue on-road along Bristow Rd (no cycle lanes would be marked), which benefits from being closed to through traffic. Park Rd to Frimley Rd via Parkway and Verran Rd An on-road signed route via Parkway and Verran Rd is also proposed (no cycle lanes would be marked). This is contingent on the creation of a new 3 metres wide path for pedestrians and cyclists across the &quot;scrubland&quot; between Verran Rd and Frimley Rd (see image below), subject to agreement being reached with all landowners. Lighting is proposed to improve sense of personal security and bollards would restrict use to pedestrians and cyclists only. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1632755297/projects/camberleytofrimleycycleway/f7cbc6d5-f703-4fcb-b714-ca614e53927b.png" />Frimley Rd crossings , Crabtree Rd and James RdA number of existing signalised crossings along Frimley Rd are proposed to be upgraded to toucan crossings. This would allow those wanting to cross Frimley Rd by bike to do so safely and join with other sections of the proposed route. This gives the opportunity for people to cross into Crabtree Rd and James Rd, and cycle on road with lower traffic volumes and speeds than would be encountered on Frimley Rd.Frimley Rd South of James Rd the proposal is to widen the north-eastern footway along Frimley Rd to a width of between 3-5 metres. The majority of this would be shared footway and cycleway. Where 5 metres can be achieved this would be segregated.<img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1631705861/projects/camberleytofrimleycycleway/c44063f8-5720-4fd8-a97a-b5479d1a6871.png" />Lyon Way to Station Rd A new quiet on-road link is being proposed along Lyon Way and Station Rd (no cycle lanes would be marked). This proposal includes a new bridge structure across a fenced-off ditch to connect the two roads. This proposal would open up a new through route for pedestrians and cyclists only, with bollards to restrict motor vehicles. Frimley High StreetWith the route continuing along Station Rd and then Burrell Rd, a new toucan crossing is proposed to connect this link to Frimley Station, approximately at the location shown in the image below (Source: Google Street View). This would benefit both pedestrians and cyclists creating a new formal crossing point on Frimley High Street. Burrell Rd would also have a new cyclist only entry/exit implemented. <img src="https://res.cloudinary.com/commonplace-digital-limited/image/upload/v1632820311/projects/camberleytofrimleycycleway/ab08f3e5-237f-4294-bb82-8b6b3f94f2c3.png" />
