Issue details
Links to Cycle Route Through Hospital Grounds - Link from Foss Islands Route to Hospital
Purpose of report: Cyclists will benefit from
a continuous cycle route from the existing Foss Islands Cycle
Route, through York Hospital to Bootham. This scheme will provide a
missing link in York's cycle network, and crucially, form part of
the Haxby to Station route agreed with Cycling England as part of
York becoming a Cycle City. Funding for this scheme has been
allocated within the 08/09 Capital Programme. Therefore, the aim is
to implement the scheme by the end of March 2009. The benefits of
the improvements for cyclists would be seen immediately. This route
through the hospital would avoid cyclists having to ride on-road
along the busy Wigginton Road.
Members are asked to: Approve the proposals for
implementation.
