Calls are mounting for a new cycle route running between Sherwood and West Bridgford. Cyclists say they "don't feel safe" travelling on Nottingham's roads which are typically very busy throughout each and every day.
A campaign group called North-South Active Travelway revealed its plans towards the end of last year. It was understood Nottingham City Council had engaged in conversations with the group.
Its plans state the route would ideally run from Sherwood, through Carrington, Mapperley Park, Forest Fields and along Mansfield Road, before continuing past Nottingham Railway Station, through the Meadows, past Meadow Lane, over Trent Bridge and into West Bridgford. One cyclist says the conditions on the existing infrastructure "are very hostile riding on your own north to south or vice versa".
