Residents invited to view Dronfield to Unstone cycle path plans

Derbyshire County Council are inviting local residents to view detailed designs for a new shared cycle path along the B6057 between Dronfield and Unstone next week.

If approved, the scheme will involve widening the footpath on one side of the road. This will create a shared 1.5 mile stretch of path for pedestrians and cyclists.

The path will run adjacent to the road between Cemetery Road, Dronfield and the entrance to the Peak Resort leisure, health, sport and education development on the former opencast site on the Birchall Estate, Unstone.

Plans will be on display at:

• Dronfield Library, Manor House, High Street, Dronfield, Wednesday 24 January, 10am to 5pm
• Sandpiper Hotel, Sheffield Road, Sheepbridge, Chesterfield, Friday 26 January, 4pm to 8pm.

Derbyshire County Council officers will be on hand to explain details of the proposals and answer any questions. Feedback will be used to inform the final layout of the scheme.
