The proposed Purple Link will provide an off carriageway route from Lydney Railway Station to the Town Centre (Swan Road). The existing segregated footway/cycleway along Station road will be converted to shared use as the existing lane widths do not meet current standards for a segregated facility. Improvements to the existing crossings on the A48 will increase visibility and aid users when crossing. The route then passes along the western boundary of the Recreation Trust Ground where a new path and bridge across The Lyd is proposed to provide a direct link to the town centre.

Link Length: 1500mAnticipated usage: Commuting and leisure cycling/walkingProposed facility: Shared use footway/cycleway
