The council has come up with a design to widen the path, but wants to hear what people who currently use the path as well as potential future users think before plans are finalised.

Leader of Worthing Borough Council, Cllr Sophie Cox, said: “Improving active and accessible travel in Worthing is a priority for us and the plans to widen this seafront path will mean that more people can enjoy the benefits of this scenic coastal route safely.

“Before the plans are finalised we want to know how you currently use the path and what you think of the designs.”

Visit https://www.adur-worthing.gov.uk/goring-shared-use-path-consultation/to see the designs and take part in the consultation by Wednesday 10th September. 

Council staff will also be holding two drop-in sessions to hear residents’ views in person:

•Tuesday 19th August from 10am to midday at the eastern end of path near George V Avenue

•Sunday 7th September from 10am to midday at the western end of path near Sea Lane Cafe 

After reviewing the results of the consultation, the council will seek external funding to deliver the proposed improvements to the path.
