Melton Road, again…

It is done. Nine years ago I first posted and messaged the council about the state of Melton Road’s old cycleway.

It’s a cycleway from the 1930s and was in a sorry state of disrepair

It’s now been renovated. Yippee! (Perhaps that’s OTT)

Thanks Leicester City Council and the government’s Active Travel England scheme.

Thanks also to Carlton Reid and the British Cycle Tracks project.

You can see more about the project here; cycleway

You can see my 2015 post about the poor state it was in, here: Melton Road

In 2017, see here, Leicester’s Mayor said “I cycled them recently … they do need some TLC”.

The surface shown in the image above still needs to be sorted. Will this take a further nine years Mr Mayor? Please?
