Active Travel Improvements; Brookley Road

Last update: March 2025

Latest updates

In July 2024, further drainage surveys were conducted to assess the existing drainage system, which requires substantial repairs under the proposed site for the ATF Brockenhurst enhancements.

To enhance the durability and overall appearance of the ATF Brockenhurst project, it has been determined that drainage improvements will be carried out before the main scheme begins. This proactive measure is to ensure that the construction efforts for the ATF Brockenhurst project are not compromised by any subsequent work required to address drainage issues in the area.

The main scheme expected to start Spring 2025.

Scheme Overview

Hampshire County Council is committed to creating better spaces for people to be able to walk and cycle in and around our towns more easily. The County Council has successfully secured funding from the Government’s Active Travel Fund to deliver a number of measures across the county which support this commitment. The views of local residents and stakeholders are important in shaping the measures to ensure they meet with the needs of the local community.

In 2020, temporary measures were introduced on Brookley Road to support social distancing during the Covid-19 pandemic. The County Council consulted with local people in 2021 on proposed measures to improve the temporary social distancing measures. Taking into account this feedback, we have worked with the Parish Council to develop a new scheme which builds on the supported measures.

The aim of these measures is to improve quality of life and wellbeing through an enhanced public space and enable increased walking and cycling in Brockenhurst.

Funding Arrangements
Funding for the transport capital delivery schemes is separate from the County Council’s revenue budget and savings proposals. In the majority of cases funding comes from external grants and / or Section 106 contribution from developers. This funding usually has conditions that strictly control on how, where and when it can be spent.
