New pedestrian and cyclist path unveiled in West Berkshire

Earlier this month we successfully completed the first stage of the Stockcross Linkway, a new shared path connecting Stockcross village to Newbury.

Designed for both pedestrians and cyclists, the path runs alongside the B4000, from Stockcross to the A4 roundabout. This first stage of the scheme was started following representations from Speen Parish Council, an active travel consultation, and £280,000 funding from the government’s Active Travel Fund.

This initiative is part of the Council’s commitment to create safer routes for walking, wheeling, and cycling, connecting Stockcross and Speen with Newbury town centre via low-traffic routes such as Speen Lane and Goldwell Park.
