Overview

We’re working with Kent County Council to deliver a new walking, wheeling and cycling route connecting the east and west of Sevenoaks town.

The route will provide a safe, environmentally friendly alternative to the car, helping to improve our health and air quality while cutting our carbon footprint.

The route connects many of the town’s schools with the communities they serve, from Riverhead and Amherst Schools in the west with Trinity, Weald of Kent and Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys annexes in the east. The route also goes via Sevenoaks Primary School and Walthamstow Hall Junior School and close to Knole Academy, The Granville School and Sevenoaks railway station.

We have already secured £1.2 million of Government funding to deliver the route. Once we have taken on board your comments, we can finalise our plans. The route could open by the end of 2024.

Our survey is available from Thursday 1 June until midnight on Friday 14 July 2023.

If you have any queries, please contact our Strategic Planning Team by emailing planning.policy@sevenoaks.gov.uk or calling 01732 227000.
