Work is progressing on site to deliver the Camborne LifeCycle scheme. Construction works started at Rosewarne Road on November 18th and have progressed along the route to Roskear Road. Construction delivery is on programme, with the first portion of the construction works due to be completed before summer 2025 and the second portion of works to be delivered by early 2026.
Benefits of Life Cycle Camborne:
• Creates a coherent link for pedestrians and cyclists between the town centre and other Camborne Town Deal projects including the Kerrier Way Green Space project and Park Gerry Sports Amenity.
• It will secure and gain long-term access from Camborne town centre and key residential areas to the surrounding green spaces including the Red River Trail, Tehidy Woods, North Cliffs and Godrevy, the Great Flat Lode Mineral Tramways (with onward connections to the Devoran to Portreath trail) and Tuckingmill Valley Park.
• Aims to encourage cycle ownership, use and active travel, creating improved background conditions to maximise potential of future funding for active travel.
• Increased cycle usage around the town will cut down on car journeys and in turn improve air quality in the town centre.
• Improvements for physical and mental wellbeing.
