Chorlton Cycleway which is due to be completed next year and will link the area to the city centre via a 3.4 mile route.Claire Stock, co-founder of WalkRideGM and Chorlton resident, said the project was more important than ever due to the pandemic.“Making it safer and easier to walk around Chorlton has become an even bigger priority for our community since COVID-19 – especially for people to get to our brilliant local shops or other amenities, and, from September, for children to be able to walk or cycle to school.“The Lottery funding will enable our community to work with three fantastic expert partners to design solutions to our traffic problems – which will mean big benefits for our community, but also our planet.”Councillor Eve Holt.
