Residents are being asked for their views on what cycling and walking improvements they would like to see in the East Riding.
East Riding of Yorkshire Council is calling for people to take part in an online survey on what facilities they think are needed across the area to help cyclists and pedestrians and encourage more to take up those activities for regular journeys to work, school and local services.
People are asked to identify new routes or paths for people who walk, wheel or cycle, areas that need upgrading or issues that need a solution.
Suggestions may include:
- a new footway/cycleway,
- new road crossings for pedestrians and cyclists,
- new cycle parking,
- changes/improvements to an existing facility,
- dropped kerbs/tactile paving,
- better street lighting.
The survey website has an interactive map for people to add locations.
The feedback will help the council better understand the issues experienced by local residents, help contribute to decisions about upcoming schemes and support efforts to make every day journeys safer, more accessible, and more enjoyable for everyone.
The views will help to shape the East Riding's next Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans (LCWIPs), which are designed to encourage more people to walk and cycle in their local communities.
The council is working with Hull and East Yorkshire Combined Authority to develop investment plans for the next three years, alongside a longer-term pipeline of future schemes.
Councillor Paul West, the council's cabinet member for environment and transport, said: "We really would love to hear from residents on what facilities they'd like to see for cyclists and pedestrians in our area, and to encourage people to ride and stride more often."
People have until Sunday 20 September 2026 to fill out the survey.
