Dear Ridhi
Much rejoicing yesterday BUT ....
It was good to see you on 'Midlands Today' yesterday evening. However, when will Sustrans respond, let alone take seriously, the little matter of the Midlands major, 22 Kms Black Country Cycle-Walk-Horse Mudway being a scandalous waste of a vital resource?
It is a disgrace that it is not being used for its intended purpose as a business, commuter and leisure route. When will you act?
It is shameful that I have been writing about the negligence of all of you at Sustrans, over this matter, in recent years. But nothing is ever done. I rarely, if ever, get a reply! I was once told that you had no money and was dependant on the authorities for funding that was never forthcoming. So fight for it, then!
It is a scandal that even OS maps declare it as an important 'traffic free' cycling and walking route but the actual shocking, waterlogged and, muddy state prevents everyone but the most committed from using it. Walkers need boots or wellies and only the mudlarks of Stourbridge Cycling Club and the fuming, dirt motorbikes can ever use large sections of it in Dudley.
You have still not got round to naming it as a National Cycle Route and giving it a number. This is basic. So obvious it should not need me to have to tell you!
I would be glad of your urgent attention to this matter, now - please.
Best wishes
Tim (Weller)
