READERS have reacted to the proposal of a new set of cycle lanes in Barrow.
The plans, which aim to improve the infrastructure for cyclists and pedestrians are part of a potential £886,000 grant from the Department for Transport’s Active Travel Fund.
Barrow along with Kendal and Carlisle is one of the first towns to undergo consultation for the Local Cycling and Walking Infrastructure Plans.
Improvements for both cyclists and pedestrians are proposed for Bridge Road, Michaelson Road, Abbey Road, Roose Road and Walney Road.
GP Rose said: “Park Road is excellent for cyclists up until the turning for the bypass, then it’s grit your teeth and hope for the best.”
