Step Into Rushcliffe
Rushcliffe Borough Council (RBC) is encouraging residents to walk, wheel or cycle when making journeys into the seven main town centres in the Borough for a healthier and greener future.
Active travel methods boost physical activity and provide numerous health and wellbeing benefits, such as maintaining a healthy weight, reducing stress, and improving heart health. It can also help save money by lowering travel costs compared to driving and parking.
By choosing to leave the car at home, residents can help to play their part in reducing their carbon footprint by improving air quality, reducing pollution and preventing traffic congestion.
Working in conjunction with Ridewise, RBC have produced a new active travel maps which highlight the safest walking routes from residential areas into their respective town centres. The maps also provide details of bus stops, green spaces, play areas, community centres and toilets.
Large physical versions of the active travel maps have also been installed in each town centre.
