DESELECTED SCHEME

Unfortunately this scheme has now been deselected and is not one of the 79 schemes which comprise the final Connect2 Project.

At the end of April we had the difficult job of choosing the final list of 79 schemes and 20 reserves from a Long List of 127 excellent proposals.  Although this particular scheme did not make it on to the final list we aim to do all we can to continue to help with its development.

We do hope that you will continue to support Connect2 and our bid to the Big Lottery Fund’s Living Landmarks: The People’s Millions.  Please use the map to find out about other Connect2 schemes in your area.

Ashton-under-Lyne and Hyde - The Peak Forest Canal

RESERVE SCHEME

There are 20 reserve schemes and it is intended that individual schemes will be called forward should any of the 79 schemes comprising the final Connect2 Project find they are unable to complete their programme.

The Connect2 project has had numerous applications for the reconstruction of canal towpaths. In the case of The Peak Forest Canal, the condition of the towpath is so bad and the links into the surrounding communities so poor that it is an excellent example of how a reconstruction together with new links, focussed on the centres of the nearby populations, will bring about a whole new idea of how to travel in the area.

Ballymoney Railway Bridge and links

This route will create a promenade from the leisure centre on the south side of town to the town centre, making use of the Riverside Park green corridor along the way. The focus of the route will be a new bridge over the railway. The real challenge is to draw the station towards the town and make the approach to the shops and the schools an attractive experience.

Banbury, Oxford Canal Links

This is an example of an expanding town that is on the opposite side of the local canal to its towpath and thus is isolated from it. The proposed bridge over the canal will not only link existing residents and new developments to the towpath which stretches out into the countryside but will also create a largely traffic free route to the station and to the town centre making connections which have been impossible up to now.
