What are the benefits?
- Improved path running alongside Woodthorpe Drive to enhance experience for park users

- Reducing the need for cyclists to turn right onto Woodthorpe Drive from Mansfield Road or turn left from Woodthorpe Drive onto Mansfield Road through new entrance to the park
What is the Transforming Cities Fund?
In 2020, Nottingham and Derby City Councils were successful in securing funding from the Department of Transport’s (DfT) Transforming Cities fund when they were awarded £161m for a huge programme of transport improvements.
The joint bid was the only one in the country to secure the full amount requested from the DfT.
