The North Red Lodge masterplan encourages walking and cycling through the provision of pedestrian and cycle routes that link to local services and areas of open space.

A segregated cycle and footpath network will provide direct and safe links to the new local centre, employment areas, open space and The Pines Primary School. They will also connect into the existing networks in Red Lodge and link to St Christopher’s Primary School, the existing village centre and sports facilities.
The number 16 bus service is routed along Hundred Acre Way to Bury St Edmunds via Mildenhall to the north and east and Newmarket to the south. The majority of the proposed site is within an 800m radius (10min walking distance) of the nearest bus stop.
The main vehicle access to North Red Lodge, including HGV access to the employment site, will be from the middle roundabout on Warren Road to the south west. Vehicular access to the local centre will be from the southern roundabout at the junction of Warren Road and Hundred Acre Way, past Elderberry Close. These accesses will be linked by an internal loop road which will be designed to accommodate a bus route.
An emergency access and cycle/pedestrian links are proposed from the masterplan site to go through the development site identified in the SALP as Site SA9(b), Land East of Red Lodge: North (for a map, see the Document Library on this page).
The school drop-off area will continue to be provided. Developers will work with the school and West Suffolk Council at the detailed design stage to integrate into the development.
