Consultation process

The scheme has been developed through the Devizes Community Area Transport Group; this

includes representatives of Devizes Town Council, Devizes Community Area Partnership, Cycle

Devizes and the Locally Elected Member – Cllr Peter Evans.

Devizes Town Council has undertaken its own local public consultation with regard to the street

lighting element.

The procedure associated with implementing a Cycle Track Order requires a level of

consultation to be undertaken with national consultees, including Friends of the Earth, Living

Streets, Cyclists Touring Club, and Joint Committee on Mobility for Disabled People, Joint

Committee on Mobility for Blind and Partially Sighted People, Ramblers’ Association, Devizes

Town Council, the emergency services and locally elected Member. The only response

received came from Wiltshire Police and related to a technical detail with the design.
