answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2018 answer text <p>The Department does not hold detailed records, but it is aware of a small number of authorities who are preparing Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans (LCWIPs) outside of the DfT support programme. It is a matter for local authorities, outside of the 46 supported by DfT, to decide how to take forward and apply the LCWIP process for their local area.</p><p> </p><p>However, the Department encourages all Local Authorities to follow the LCWIP guidance by taking a whole network approach to planning and prioritising schemes. All Local Transport Authorities are able to access a range of planning tools, such as the Propensity to Cycle Tool and can draw on the LCWIP technical guidance (launched in April 2017), which provides a step-by-step guide to planning a cycling and walking network and prioritising schemes for delivery.</p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 16/10/2018 16:26:09 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2017 answer text <p>The Department continues to engage with a wide range of stakeholders on the delivery of the Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy. I met with representatives from the main walking and cycling organisations on 19 September to discuss various matters including how the Department might best benefit from their expertise in delivering the strategy, and have met regularly with Cycling and Walking stakeholders since then. In the light of this discussion, the Department has decided to establish a more informal stakeholder advisory group to ensure that cycling and walking policies are informed by regular dialogue with the relevant organisations. I will be meeting regularly with the group myself so that I can listen to and consider their views.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 03/11/2017 12:41:37 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
