I WOULD like to take this opportunity to inform readers of an exciting new facility on our website providing detailed maps of the National Cycle Network as well as a virtual online tour.
It can be viewed on the internet at www.sustrans.org.uk.
The network offers many miles of cycle routes, much of which is along safe, peaceful, traffic-free paths.
It offers attractive opportunities for families to enjoy the countryside and towns as well as alternative fume-free routes for commuters and young people travelling to school.
By 2005 we will have completed 10,000 miles of the network and over half the population will be within a couple of miles of access.
The National Cycle Network is a Millennium Commission project supported by £43.5m of National Lottery funds.
Sustrans, the sustainable transport charity, has been able to provide this unique and informative facility with the generous sponsorship of Halfords.
