Work finally starts on Upper Don Valley Cycle Route!



After months, well - years sat around in meetings and committees, I'm glad to report that some physical activity is finally starting to provide cycling facilities in the N of the city. The StreetForce signs for the first section of the "Upper Don Valley Cycle Route" went in at the weekend:

Men have been seen working on the pavement section near Rutland Road...

Nothing earth-shattering as such is happening yet - this is a shared-pavement section just running between Neepsend Bridge and Rutland Road, but it's a start and there will be a highly visible off-road route right next to Penistone Road by the summer which may well tempt a few cagers to enjoy the finer life...
