Cycle Spine development paused

I'm pleased to see the decision to pause work on the Cycle Spine between St Ann Way and Cole Avenue- a huge step in the right direction.

Around 150 residents came together at our public meeting last month. They raised legitimate concerns about a huge number of issues, including the potential impact this phase could have on traffic flow and road safety. It's good to see that the County Council appear to have heard that message.

I support making cycling safer and more accessible, but any improvements must work for the whole community and be delivered in the right way.
