Wales canal boat holidays13-08-2010 : Wales canal boat holidays 'would benefit from cycle route' |
Canal boat holidays in wales will benefit from a brand new cycle path in llandudno, sustrans has suggested. The sustainable transport charity revealed that a similar route between chepstow and fishguard has brought £8 million a year to the local economy - and llandudno could follow suit.
Lee waters, director of the charity in wales, commented: 'sustrans would like to see a compromise reached, with a trial period for cycling along the prom. 'there are already numerous examples of where promenade space in wales is shared successfully and safely, swansea bike path for instance.
'the proposed route would form route 5 of the national cycle network from chester to holyhead. September 11th will mark the 15th anniversary of the national cycle network in wales, which runs over more than 1,200 miles throughout the country.
The first welsh route to be created on the network was the taff trail, which was opened in the mid-90s. . |
