News on Romiley Engagement

Stockport Council would like your views on plans for a new walking and cycling link between Romiley and Stockport.

As part of our Mayoral Challenge Fund programme, we have developed a new route between Romiley and Stockport town centre.

It is 4 miles long and goes all the way from the Cherry Tree estate in Romiley to the Town Centre. It runs along a combination of off-road paths and quiet roads avoiding busy main roads, but where it does encounter busy roads, it provides off-road cycle paths and signal-controlled crossings.

This scheme will form part of Greater Manchester’s Bee Network and we would like your views on it.

The proposals are co-ordinated with existing routes including the District Centre Improvement scheme on Stockport Rd/Compstall Road and a future Active Neighbourhood. Responses to those schemes have been analysed in the development of the proposals. The Traffic Regulation Orders for the District Centre scheme were recently advertised and the response will be presented to Area Committee in the coming months.
