Ok folks, this in an important one....
Sustrans have a planning application in (two actually as it spans two authority areas) for a cycle path on the old railway line between Chepstow and Tintern. The applications are live now and we need people to email in support, to make sure the small number of local NIMBYs don't get ddisproportionate represenation for their selfish views. The vast majority of locals are very enthusiastic about the plans.
The path will provide a safe, off-road cycle route along the lower Wye Valley giving locals and visitors alike a safe alternative to the lethal A466 between Brockweir and Chepstow.
Sustrans have earmarked funding from the Connect2 bid and this will get built quite quickly if the planning is approved.
Simply email the address below with the reference numbers given - just say you are in support, they are simply counting fors and againsts, not weighing up argumants.
If you live locally, say so, if you are not email anyway but there is no need to say where you live.
Forest of Dean Council:
planning@fdean.gov.uk quoting reference P1597/07/FUL
Monmouthshire Council
planning@monmouthshire.gov.uk quoting reference DC/2008/00367
We only have until the end of the week so please do this now!
Thanks
Rob
