The Chancellor’s Spending Review has placing future spending on cycling in jeopardy. We’ve written to our MP, Jeremy Quin asking him to support the All Party Parliamentary Cycling Group’s call for proper funding for cycling. You can read the letter here.
He has replied that he will be “listening to what is said closely.”
Chris Boardman has today written an excellent article explaining why the Chancellor should use the Spending Review to invest in cycling for the sake of our health and our economy. The article has received wide support both locally and nationally.
