People in Arun are being invited to have their say on plans to improve walking, cycling and mobility access.

Arun District Council is drawing up a Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan, covering everything from cycling and walking to wheelchairs, mobility scooters and pushchairs.

Feedback from residents will help shape future routes and priorities, with a public survey now open.

Chair of the Planning Committee, Councillor Simon McDougall said: “Local knowledge is vital in shaping our Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plan.

“The feedback we receive through this survey will directly inform priorities for walking, wheeling and cycling across Arun. Understanding where people feel safe and where improvements are needed will help guide future investment in active travel infrastructure.”

The consultation runs from Monday 26 January to Sunday 15 March 2026.
