Rivers: Walking
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what criteria her Department will use to evaluate proposals for the nine new propossed national river walks.
Answered by Mary Creagh
The Government continues to progress plans to deliver nine new National River Walks across England, one in each region, to enhance access to nature. We will identify locations for the next tranche of river walks through a competition that will be launched before the end of 2026. We will give further details relating to the competition, selection and assessment criteria in due course.
