Active Travel Scheme: Consultation

Manchester City Council and Transport for Greater Manchester are currently holding consultations for Wythenshawe Active Travel Scheme.

The scheme aims to provide some new dedicated cycling and walking infrastructure from the Simonsway, crossing Hollyhedge Rd, down Hall Lane, through Wythenshawe Park and through to Chorlton Water Park. The proposed route ties into the airport via a link at Simonsway to the east (also picking up the town centre) and Wythenshawe hospital cycle link to the west.

As the route travels North it picks up Wythenshawe park, a link to Chorlton Water Park and finally ties into multiple routes to Manchester.

A series of on-line events will take place between 26 April and 14 May If you’d like to get involved email atswythenshawe@manchester.gov.uk and state which event you’d like to join. All events will be from 6.30pm to 7.30pm:

Monday 26 April – Airport bridge to M56 bridge

Monday 10 May – M56 bridge to Wythenshawe Park 

Wednesday 12 May – Wythenshawe Park to Kenworthy Woods

Friday 14 May – Kenworthy Woods to Chorlton Water Park

Litter Picking Map

Look at our map of volunteers

We have been running the monthly litter picking events for nearly a year now to make the streets of Merseybank cleaner. The yellow lines on the map show the streets with one household participating and the red lines with multiple households participating.

There are currently 19 residents from 13 different households doing the litter picking on regular basis.

While we often clean other streets too, wouldn’t that be great to get all Merseybank streets to participate?

Look up Merseybank Green Group Forum on Facebook, or send us an email on MerseybankGroup@gmail.com to get your complete litter picking kit delivered to your door.
