Guisborough Active Travel Route

This Active Travel investment will address connectivity issues between Guisborough and other parts of Redcar & Cleveland and Middlesbrough, which currently act as a barrier to growth.

A scheme which is being investigated and funded by the Tees Valley Combined Authority looks to join one end of the walkway to Nunthorpe and enable improved access to onward cycle routes into Middlesbrough, providing an opportunity to access the walkway from further afield and increasing the level of use. This will provide a safe alternative route and encourage active modes of travel with clear health and wellbeing benefits as a result, which will seek to address a number of the social deprivation challenges that prevail. To learn more about this section of the project, please visit Guisborough to Nunthorpe Connectivity - Tees Valley (teesvalley-ca.gov.uk) or contact the Tees Valley Combined Authority by email consultations@teesvalley-ca.gov.uk.

Stantec has been appointed as consultants by Redcar & Cleveland Borough Council to design a new active travel route through Guisborough Town Centre towards Nunthorpe. The Active Travel Route will also increase accessibility to other outdoor attractions in the area including the Guisborough Forest Walkway and North York Moors National Park, encouraging the use of these spaces and generating associated health and wellbeing benefits.

We ran engagement events with the local community through July and August 2024 on the proposed Guisborough Active Travel Route and are current analysing your feedback, which will inform our next steps. To view the downloadable plans, please click HERE. FAQ’s can also be found HERE.
