Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council

Connect2

 Connect2 is a national initiative developed by Sustrans, the sustainable transport charity. It aims to connect communities currently separated by major physical barriers such as rivers, roads and railways.

Stockton Council has worked with Sustrans to develop a Connect2 scheme linking Ingleby Barwick with Eaglescliffe, Thornaby and Yarm via a series of walking and cycling routes - including new bridges across the Rivers Leven and Tees.

The proposed routes will bring the four communities closer together, making it easier to travel to work, school, the shops or the station on foot or by cycle. They will also improve access to Preston Park and the River Tees between Stockton and Yarm, opening up this stretch of the river for leisure use by all residents of the Borough.
