A scheme to develop an enhanced cycling and walking route in the heart of Oldham town centre has received more than £2 million in funding.
The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has agreed to fully approve a project to improve walking, wheeling and cycling infrastructure between Oldham West Street and Cheapside bus stations, by the Civic Centre.
The scheme which forms part of the council’s ‘Accessible Oldham’ project and which will cost £2.144m, is to be funded from the Mayor’s Challenge Fund cycling and walking programme.
