Council takes action with new cycle route
The Council have made a decision to place a new path for cyclists on the edge of the stray, after a 150 year cycling ban has recently been lifted. Council workers were widening paths on the 200-acre stretch of green yesterday despite campaigners such as the Stray Defence Association criticising the decision. Local man Lionel Shrago said "the council are destroying the stray" and added "100 percent of people I know disagree with the work that is being done for the cycle path". The selected paths will be 2.5 metres wide and will be available for both pedestrians and cyclists. There will be no lighting and signage will be kept to a minimum. It is expected that the finished paths will arrive in around ten weeks.
