Wow. I’ve just cycled the length of the
#Chorlton cycleway in my lunch break to check on progress and bar the section over the bridge I only saw one cone and one barrier. So good to see the pavements and road free of all the clutter. 🐝
Eric Wright busy working to finish some of the surfacing but almost a clear run.
It’s been a really hard and frustrating process and the level of vitriol we’ve had thrown at us as Councillors has been phenomenal.
Whilst it may not be perfect, as someone who has cycled this route more days than not for 45 years, I have no doubt that the changes will not just improve lives, but will save lives!
Cleaner air and safer, healthier more sustainable travel. And ultimately, as people’s confidence grows in using it, I’ve no doubt it will help reduce congestion and increase footfall for local traders. If not, I’ll eat my cycling hat!
