Plan ‘B’

September 25, 2014 by CycleNewForest 2 Comments

Yesterday, I was contacted about doing an interview regarding the proposed plan ‘b’ to replace the cancelled New Forest cycle hire scheme. It was broadcast this morning on the BBC Solent Breakfast Show. This evening, Oliver Crosthwaite-Eyre, the chairman of the NFNPA was invited to respond. Perhaps not enough voices have been heard on the issue.

The clip below is the extended piece from this morning.

    HI Tim

    Great interview yesterday. I presented a scheme yesterday to the NPA members panel to try and persuade them that we can still deliver the family cycling centre in brockenhurst. they have now gone away to consider whether our proposal is worthy of investment. it still meets about 90% of the original DFT bid objectives for Project 1 which we cannot deliver now. Let me know if you want me to email you the details.

    Regards, Ross

      Hi Ross,

      That sounds encouraging!

      If you have any details to send over, would be good to have a look. Just email to the address in the footer.

      Thanks

      Tim
