Huncoat: Map of the proposed Huncoat Greenway cycle route

The Huncoat Greenway scheme will provide an off road cycle route between Huncoat Village and Accrington. Three sections of the Greenway are already in place but the central part of the route is currently missing which affects how useful it is as a route and limits the number of potential users.

Completion of the Greenway will provide cyclists and pedestrians a continuous, safe, off road route just under 2km in length avoiding the busy A679 Burnley Road. The Greenway will connect housing areas to Huncoat Industrial Estate, other employment sites and nearby schools.

Work by LCC is expected to start in the next 12 months.
