Futures Forum: Cycling: Sustrans publishes Sidmouth to Feniton study
The press reaction was generally positive:
Otterly brilliant: Devon eyes up new traffic-free trail | Sidmouth | cycle.travel
View From Online - News from West Dorset, East Devon & South Somerset
Study assesses feasibility for new route from Sidmouth to Feniton | Sustrans
A bridge too far? - News - Sidmouth Herald
And last week the area manager for Sustrans, Paul Hawkins, presented the research and proposals to Sidmouth Town Council:
Futures Forum: Cycling: latest plans presented at Sidmouth Town Council: press report
Futures Forum: Cycling: latest plans presented at Sidmouth Town Council
Paul will be leaving Sustrans on Weds 18th June - and would like some feedback about the feasibility study. To quote from Paul:
We have set in place a programme of finishing off outstanding work that we are committed to that I will be focussing on over the next working days...
The key point
is that the report says pretty much everything I can apart from the landowner
contact log details which are lodged with Devon County Council.
The
presentation to Sidmouth Town Council seemed to be well received last night with
support for the concept of the route and a keenness to look at a route in
sections and at what sections can be done sooner rather than later, as per the
recommendation of the report, whilst recognising that a whole route will take
many years.
May I suggest that you
pass out my email and telephone number to any of your members who have specific
or general queries regarding the report so that I can answer these before
18th June?
