Sir, – Surely now is an opportune time to include an integrated cycle path system in Northallerton’s redevelopment masterplan. It should be possible to have a track from Brompton to the Lees Lane roundabout and a traverse from the new estate on Yafforth Road to the Forum.
This would connect the secondary schools, GP surgeries, Forum and railway station, thereby encouraging all ages to cycle safely. In the meantime, more bicycle parking posts are needed, particularly on the High Street.
