TraveL guide

Leicester Forest East (LFE)

LFE is the closest community to Lubbesthorpe and probably the place you will nip to get a pint of milk or a loaf of bread as it is located on Beggars Lane. There is a footpath off Tay Road (near to the bollards) which will give you access to LFE and a convenience store located on Forest House Lane.

There are a number of small shops such as newsagents, hairdressers, Post Office, Co-op, Sainsbury’s and bakers scattered throughout LFE. The majority of shops can be found on the main A47 road through towards the city. If you fancy a take-away you can find Indian food as well as a Fish and Chip shop.

There is also a very friendly Community Library which also has activities and groups that meet in it.

If you need to register with a Doctor, then visit Forest House Medical Centre on the A47 Desford crossroads, as they will be taking patients from New Lubbesthorpe until a surgery is built. There are Dentists and a Chemists located on Warren Lane

Check the map in the guide for further information on local amenities.

Travel by Walking and by Bike Benefits of walking and cyclingWalking or cycling to work, shops or school is an easy way to achieve this target, plus it will save you money, meaning less travel costs and no gym membership! What’s more, for some journeys, travelling by bike can be as quick as the car.

Making walking and cycling easier When complete, New Lubbesthorpe will have 320 acres of parkland, with lots of footpaths plus off road shared space for walking and cycling.

As part of the Travel Plan, there will be support to encourage more cycling. If you have any ideas, email [email protected]

Some useful information• Find out more about local cycling courses and resources

www.choosehowyoumove.co.uk/everyday/cycling

• For a guide showing cycle routes in Leicester South – go to: www.choosehowyoumove.co.uk/file/leicester-cyclingmap-south

• Cycling is often quicker than you think from New Lubbesthorpe – travel to Leicester City Centre and rail station in 25 - 40 minutes and Fosse Shopping Park in 10 - 20 minutes – with many parts of these journeys on segregated paths and quieter roads.

• Here’s a journey planner purely for cycling: www.cyclestreets.net/journey

How will residents benefit? Travelling more sustainably can help in a number of ways:

• Save money – use of a petrol or diesel powered car and buying a 2nd car can be more expensive than you think – choosing sustainable options, including an electric car, can save money. Residents of New Lubbesthorpe can enjoy free bus travel and savings on cycling, train travel and more besides.

• Improve health – by using travel options that help incorporate healthy activities into your daily routines

• Make a difference – by choosing to travel sustainably, you are making a positive difference for future generations and the environment

Summary of key activities • Walking – promoting the options to walk locally

• Cycling – promoting and developing tools to encourage more cycling – reviewing options such as a Bicycle Users Group, Bike Share scheme and Dr Bike maintenance

• Bus travel – a new bus service is planned to start within the next year, making it easier to travel to Leicester city centre and surrounding areas

• Cars – making it possible to car share, explore the potential of a car club and make electric vehicle charging easier

• Schools and workplaces – work is underway with the sites being developed in New Lubbesthorpe and those in the surrounding areas, to make it easier to make these trips without the need for a car

What is the New Lubbesthorpe Travel Plan? A major new development like New Lubbesthorpe, will create a lot of new traffic. Cars are a very flexible way of making journeys but do have some downsides. Their emissions are a contributor to climate change and reduce air quality. Cars also make more demands on our road network and require space for parking in city centres, business parks and shopping centres. In many places, local roads and car parking is already at, or close to, capacity. Less journeys by car with only one person will make for a more sustainable future.

The Drummond Estate, the developer of New Lubbesthorpe, is committed to promoting and developing travel options to reduce the need for all journeys to be made by car.

Smarter use of CarsCars can offer a lot of convenience when making journeys and can at times be the only practical way of making a journey. However, they do have some adverse impacts. There are a number of ways of reducing these impacts and saving money. Here are some suggestions.

Car shareMade famous by Peter Kay (John) and Sian Gibson (Kayleigh), this is one way to help reduce costs and enjoy some company! There is a scheme already set up to help make this even easier. Go to: www.liftshare.com/uk/community/leicestershare.

As part of the Travel Plan for New Lubbesthorpe, we plan to develop a group scheme just open to residents of New Lubbesthorpe. If you want to be part of it, email [email protected]

Electric vehicles The popularity of electric and hybrid vehicles is growing significantly. Though their purchase costs are typically higher than petrol and diesel cars, their running costs are much lower. There are more and more charging points becoming available (see www.zap-map.com) and the variety of cars you can buy is growing.

For independent advice on electric vehicles and charging, go to www.goultralow.com.

Travel by Train The nearest major rail station is Leicester (LE2 0QB), a distance of 5½ miles away. To reach it by bus, take any bus service for Leicester city centre. Narborough (LE19 2HR) is the nearest rail station and is 3 miles from New Lubbesthorpe.

To find out train times and fares, go to www.nationalrail.co.uk

How can I save money?On the National Rail Enquiries website (www.nationalrail.co.uk), you will find information on all ticket prices, for all train companies. If you are a regular train traveller, season tickets offer the best way of saving money. On this website, there is a season ticket calculator. You could save even more with LocalGo discounts!

By splitting tickets, or by buying railcards, you can often reduce the cost of train travel. If you want more information, then email [email protected]

Travel by Park and Ride Why Park & Ride?If you are looking for a convenient way of travelling to Leicester city centre, Leicester Royal Infirmary or De Montfort University, then using the Park & Ride could work well for you.

Within a 5 to 10-minute drive of New Lubbesthorpe, there are two Park & Ride services for Leicester.

Travel guide

Leicester Forest East (LFE)

LFE is the closest community to Lubbesthorpe and probably the place you will nip to get a pint of milk or a loaf of bread as it is located on Beggars Lane. There is a footpath off Tay Road (near to the bollards) which will give you access to LFE and a convenience store located on Forest House Lane.

There are a number of small shops such as newsagents, hairdressers, Post Office, Co-op, Sainsbury’s and bakers scattered throughout LFE.
