Surrey Cycling Strategy

Dear All

 

I wanted to make you aware of a debate taking place on 23 October relating to the County Council's proposed cycling strategy.

 

Surrey County Council is working with BBC Surrey to arrange and broadcast a live debate about cycling and its issues for the county. The debate will involve a panel of representatives from Surrey Police, the cycling charity Sustrans, British Cycling and the county's parish councils. It will be aired in front of a live audience, who will be able to ask questions of the panellists, while BBC Surrey radio listeners can participate by phoning in or tweeting their questions and comments. Key topics to be covered include: cycling safety, cycle lanes, training and major sporting events.

 

The debate is part of a wider consultation with residents to help shape a cycling strategy to encourage people to cycle more safely. To take part in the consultation survey, and to find out more about the debate, which takes place at Surrey University in Guildford on Wednesday 23 October from 7pm, visit www.surreycc.gov.uk/cyclingstrategy. Copies of the draft cycling strategy and the survey are also available from Surrey libraries or you can call 03456 009 009 to request a copy. The two links to the survey itself are as follows:

 

• If you are an individual https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Individual-Consulation
• If you are representing an organisation https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Organisation-Consultation

 

In addition a 'Feature' has been added to the home page of our website at www.molevalley.gov.uk relating to the consultation which closes on Friday 1 November.

 

Please would you consider completing the survey on behalf of your organisation, and also encourage your residents to fill it in as individuals? Thank you.

 

 

Kind regards

 

Louise
