The long running campaign to convert the path between Combe Down and Claverton Down into a safe and convenient cycle path continues.

B&NES Council made a legal order to create a Restricted Byway on the footpath, allowing legal cycling, in July. While the proposal was generally well recieved, four objections were made. This means that the issue must be sent to the Planning Inspectorate to decide.

Your local councillors are very disappointed with this further delay, but are pressing for work to improve to the path to begin before Winter.
