The MTB trails that are being built have now entered the planning stage and i'm sorry to say that some people have raised some objections. I'd like to think that if your reading this then your in favour of more cycling facilities (of all kinds) in and around Swansea. Can you take a moment to email your support to
planning@swansea.gov.uk
and quote planning application 2011/0566
We need as many people as possible to email in with their support (even if you write the email for them).
It has the potential to be a superb asset to the City.
You may want to mention some of the following :-
* will encourage tourism to the area
* positive involvment of local community
* positive effects on local youth
* sustainability of trails
* the consideration of other users in the overall plan - walkers & equestrians
* considerations of environmentally sesitive areas
Lets get behind this as cyclists, not just mountain bikers, road riders or bmx'ers. If we band together on this then we can become more vocal about other facilities and events that we would like (and need) in the future.
