Guidance: Active Travel England design assistance tools
Route cross-section and crossing selector tools to support users during the design process of active travel interventions and schemes.
Active Travel England (ATE) has developed a suite of tools to support the development of designs and the assessment of design quality for active travel interventions and schemes.
These design assistance tools should be used in conjunction with ATE scheme review tools.
Crossing selector toolProvides a range of suitable design options when considering how to connect walking, wheeling and cycling routes over a main road between 2 side roads.
Route cross-section toolAssists in confirming whether a corridor is suitable for different kinds of active travel infrastructure, given constraints such as carriageway width.
Both tools are based on national guidance such as:
- Cycle infrastructure design LTN 1/20
- Inclusive Mobility: making transport accessible for passengers and pedestrians
- Manual for streets 2007 and Manual for streets 2010
- existing street assessment tools, such as Cycling Level of Service (appendix A in Cycle Infrastructure Design LTN 1/20 and Healthy Streets
- best practice and further evidence
