Herefordshire councillor Jim Kenyon has been part of the team behind the project, picture with the cycle circuit plans. DESPITE a delay to the construction of Hereford's new cycle circuit Halo Leisure say that they are 'very committed to the delivery' of the project. In March last year the project for a 1.5-kilometres closed circuit at Hereford Racecourse was provisionally awarded £500,000 from Sport England through the British Cycling “Places to Ride” funding programme. With £200,000 committed from Herefordshire Council and £50,000 awarded by Hereford City Council this bought the total financial support to £750k. However, the project awaits a decision from British Cycling if the money can be carried over into the next financial year.
