Interactive map
The Movement Strategy includes a vision-based network map that shows how different streets in Bath will be prioritised for different modes of travel by 2035.
This map is based on a street user matrix, which classifies streets according to their movement and place functions. It helps us understand where walking, wheeling, cycling, buses, and general traffic should be prioritised.
What the map shows:
- Walking, wheeling and cycling routes: Key corridors for active travel, aligned with the Active Travel Masterplan.
- Bus priority corridors: Routes where buses will be given priority to improve reliability and journey times.
- General traffic and freight routes: Strategic roads for through-traffic and freight, helping reduce congestion in sensitive areas.
- What are mobility hubs? By bringing different transport services conveniently together at these Mobility Hub sites, we intend to make it easier for people to switch between different forms of transport - improving connections and making journeys easier while at the same time providing an opportunity to improve public spaces in a way which meets local community and business needs.
- What's a strategic route? Strategic Routes are high-priority corridors for longer-distance travel, connecting key destinations and supporting high volumes of walking, cycling, and wheeling.
- What's a quiet route? Quiet routes follow low-traffic streets or paths, offering safer and more pleasant alternatives to busy roads.
- What are community connections? Community connections link local neighbourhoods to nearby services, schools, green spaces, and also connect into the wider Strategic and Quiet route networks.
- What are missing pavement routes? Missing pavement routes identify gaps in the walking network where footways are needed, especially in rural or suburban areas.
