The Gardenway is a co-designed 20km linear orbital park proposal for Aylesbury Garden Town. It provides an inclusive walking, cycling and wheeling route connecting communities through the lowland landscapes of Aylesbury Vale. Community priorities are represented through 12 Gardenway Design Charter principles, including climate change, biodiversity, green and blue infrastructures, sustainability, health and wellbeing, young people, heritage, craft, skills and enterprise.
“The Gardenway would be a win-win – a boost for sustainability by encouraging people to walk and cycle in nature-rich surroundings, with all the social, health and wellbeing benefits this brings.” Adrian Thomas, RSPB
“… the prospect of our clients being able to become involved in the Gardenway is exciting. Engaging in employment focused activities on the Gardenway such as volunteering could play a significant role in their rehabilitation.” Martin Hillier, Community Head Injury Service, Buckinghamshire Healthcare NHS Trust
