Have your say on the speed limit reduction and walking and cycling improvements in the villages of Oaklands and Woolmer Green.

Hertfordshire County Council aims to improve journeys through the village by making it more convenient and safer to access local schools, shops and other amenities on foot or by bike.

The scheme is also looking to introduce more crossing points and create a separate cycle lane in order to reduce speed limits.

The council has been working closely with Oaklands Primary School and St Michael's Woolmer Green among other local stakeholders.

The council was also awarded £9 million by the Department of Transport as a part of the goverment's active travel fund.

Residents can have their say on the initial proposal which will shape the scheme's progress ahead of the public consultation later in the year.

The public will have four weeks to have their say on the proposals, up until Monday, February 27.

Phil Bibby, executive member for Highways and Transport at Hertfordshire County Council, said: "These improvements will encourage and empower many more people to feel safe travelling in an active and environmentally friendly way.

"This in turn will deliver significant long-term benefits to the health and wellbeing of our residents and reduce our impact on the environment.

"We want everyone in the area to get involved and have their say on the proposals, so we can ensure they are developed with our communities in mind."
