Scheme description

In Bury, changes will be implemented in the Heaton Park area with the intention of improving the safety and appearance of Whittaker Lane, as well as improving links to the park, local schools and transport hubs.

Residents are being asked to feedback what they like about their area, but also how it could be made better - and whether they would like to stop through traffic using their streets as a short-cut.

This scheme is part of a GM-wide project to deliver an Active Neighbourhood in every borough, overseen by TfGM, Arup and Sustrans.
