Shared use routes are designed to accommodate the movement of pedestrians and cyclists. Shared use schemes require careful consideration, and this Local Transport Note (which supersedes LTN 2/86 Shared use by cyclists and pedestrians) provides advice on their planning, design and provision. It suggests a scheme development process to help in deciding whether shared use is appropriate for any given situation and stresses the importance of high-quality inclusive design that addresses the needs of all users. It places particular emphasis on involving users, residents and other stakeholders in the design process. (Author/publisher)
