Lingley Mere
Travel by Foot
Pedestrian access to Lingley Mere was a key consideration during the masterplanning process. As such, the existing paths and crossings within the park are being improved and increased with additional paths also being constructed around key amenity areas, such as the two park lakes.
Walking to work is an excellent way to both keep fit and help reduce traffic thereby helping the environment. Lingley Mere is committed to encouraging and promoting walking to work wherever possible, so if you live in the vicinity why not give it a go? We encourage people who live within 1.5 miles of the park to walk if at all possible. The Travel Share scheme also includes a walk 'buddy' option should you wish to link up with other likeminded park employees.
