Public rights of way projects
The Rights of Way Improvement Plan aims to provide a high quality, well maintained public rights of way network.
Delivering the plan
A Single Local Growth Fund project to provide small scale local improvements on routes to education and employment across the county. The project will deliver 7 rights of way improvement schemes between 2015 and 2021 to a value of £1.3 million. These are designed to provide sustainable transport connections around new housing developments.
Active travel
We want to encourage the residents of Kent to walk and cycle more. To do this we are introducing pedestrian and cyclist zones in and around some of Kent's towns.

King Charles III England Coast Path and Coastal Access
This project will improve coastal access around the entire Kent coastline in accordance with the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009.
The King Charles III England Coast Path is a new 2,700 mile trail around England’s coast. As part of the creation of this path a ‘coastal margin’ is being identified, which will mean new rights to enjoy areas like beaches, dunes and foreshore.
