## Notice

here is an opportunity to improve horse riding provision in the vicinity of the A1(M) between Leeming and Barton in North Yorkshire. Some of these improvements would also assist with walking and cycling in the area. The A1 was recently improved to motorway standard which involved some equestrian improvements; but the design was completed prior to RIS 1 and our greater ambitions being set out around integration and supporting walkers, cyclists and horse riders. Concerns have been raised by local and national stakeholders that the constructed scheme has missed opportunities to provide joined up and attractive routes for horse riders that connect up wider communities. This application seeks funding for a short feasibility study to examine readily deliverable options to increase the quality of equestrian provision in this area prior to full handover into operations.
