Quiet Lanes are a Countryside Agency initiative, which has the support of the Department for Transport. Quiet Lanes are minor rural roads which are appropriate for shared use by walkers, cyclists, horse riders and motorised users. They should have low traffic flows travelling at low speeds. There have been two Quiet Lanes National Demonstration Projects, in north Norfolk and west Kent; supported by the Countryside Agency working in association with Norfolk and Kent County Councils. This leaflet describes the schemes and their impacts, and offers some advice for future schemes. (Author/publisher)
