Draft Exmouth Cyclepath Strategy

There are currently major developments of the National Cycle Network through Exmouth underway. Construction of a completely new off-road route from Exmouth to Lympstone is scheduled by Devon County Council to be completed by this autumn; from Lympstone to Exton by autumn 2008 and all the way to Exeter by autumn 2009. Substantial work has recently been undertaken on the off-road route from Exeter to Powderham together with the Exmouth to Topsham route and the ferry this will give an off-road circuit with fantastic tourism potential. To maximise the benefits of these major improvements and improve accessibility by bicycle throughout the town, the Exmouth Cyclepath Working Group (comprised of 9 interested local residents) in consultation with the Town, District and County Council's, have produced a strategy for comprehensive cyclepath provision in Exmouth.

The Exmouth Cycle Strategy was available for public comment during a six-week period from 7 November 2007 until 20 December 2007.
