Access to Green Spaces as well as spaces themselves must be available to all users including equestrians. Once again, this policy, despite referring to the benefits of more natural spaces, refers only to walking and cycling access. Cambridgeshire Local Transport Plan defines Active travel as walking, cycling and horse riding. The whole of this plan needs to include equestrians wherever it includes cyclists unless there is good reason for their exclusion e.g. central urban areas.
