Future Cycling Infrastructure

There is generally several years lead time between a developments inception and seeing concrete evidence of it on the ground. CCNB has been involved in many development briefs and consultations and continuously monitors all planning applications and policy decisions to ensure that provision for cyclists is provided or, in the case of small developments, to ensure that a contribution is made for improvements in the immediate area.
