Herefordshire Council was offered the opportunity to submit a bid for the ATF4 in early 2023. ATF4 provides Herefordshire Council the opportunity to deliver infrastructure that enables walking, wheeling and cycling within the County, supporting an uptake of active travel for everyday trips. Herefordshire Council was successful in being awarded £306k of grant funding to be used on four active travel schemes;

- School Streets
- Barton Road
- Aylestone Hill
- Dropped Crossings

The ATF4 grant funding must be commitment during 2023/24 financial year with works completed as reasonably possible thereafter. Failure to achieve these timescales would result in funds being returned to Active Travel England (ATE).

AECOM will pick up design, consultation, project management and other relevant work to ensure that each scheme is designed and delivered within the required funding timescales.
