Messages of support -
- Daniel Cox, County Councillor for Humbleyard Ward -
I am supporting this campaign as I recognise the need to create a safe and direct
route for people living in Little Melton and Hethersett to cycle
to work at the Norwich Research Park, Hospital, UEA and central
Norwich.
- Richard Bearman, County Councillor for Mancroft - I support a direct, high quality cycle link. Cycling to work is a really good way to travel - it is efficient,
reliable and healthy.
- Joan Hughes, Head Teacher of Little Melton Primary School - Within school we lay
great store on keeping our children safe and healthy whilst preparing them for the future, hence cycle training; we would
like to know that in their move to Hethersett High School they
can use their new skills in as safe an environment as possible.
