RESOLVED: That Cabinet adopted the King’s Lynn Transport Strategy (KLTS) as outlined in Appendix A.
With regard to recommendations from the Regeneration and Development Panel (held on 2nd March 2026) Cabinet responded as follows:
Cabinet agreed that officers should undertake further investigation and evaluation of a Park and Ride scheme, as well as a Park and Walk scheme.
Cabinet highlighted that Tennyson Road project is a priority for the Neighbourhood Board and endorsed any request from the Regeneration and Development Panel for an update from the Board on interim enhancements to the existing crossing at Tennyson Road.
Cabinet agreed to request Norfolk County Council look at the feasibility of creating a safe active travel route along the Gaywood River to link Reffley and Knights Hill development to the existing network and Lynnsport, avoiding Edward Benefer Way subject to operational resource.
REASON FOR DECISION: To allow the KLTS and Implementation Plan to be adopted at Borough level, inform wider place-based strategies for King’s Lynn and support its implementation. Endorsement of the KLTS aligns with the council’s priority to support growth and prosperity and to protect our environment
