People are being asked for their views on how Ilkeston town has changed and how we can make it more pedestrian and cyclist friendly.
Sustrans is working with Erewash Borough Council to find out what stops people walking or cycling the short distances in and around Ilkeston town, and what might help them leave their cars at home for some of these trips.
Apart from the health benefits of a bit of a walk in the fresh air, more short journeys taken by foot or by bike would help reduce congestion, pollution, and noise.

The money for the scheme is from what are known as Section 106 levies paid by developers – which is ringfenced funding to improve travel in Ilkeston.
