Crosshouse to Kilmarnock active travel route

Ayrshire Roads Alliance are in the process of creating a walking, wheeling, and cycling (known as ‘active travel’) route between Crosshouse in East Ayrshire and Kilmarnock. Wheeling refers to an alternative means of travel to foot / pedestrian-based mobility, such as travel by wheelchair, mobility scooter or wheeled walker.

The Crosshouse to Kilmarnock Active Travel Project involves the creation of an active travel link between Kilmarnock and Crosshouse, linking to the University Hospital and Moorfield North Industrial Estate. The route will create a safe and attractive environment for walking, wheeling, and cycling, making active travel the obvious choice for everyday journeys undertaken by the communities within Crosshouse.

Funding for the project was awarded by Sustrans through Places for Everyone. Places for Everyone is an active travel infrastructure programme supported by the Scottish Government and administered by Sustrans.
