At the St Ives end the cycle track was simply laid at ground level, and initially it was a gravel track. Money was found to raise the level a bit, but hindsight has shown it wasn't enough, and also provide a tarred surface.The cycle track is supposed to double as a 'maintenance' track. But how it can do that beats me, when for several weeks it has been under water - at one place 2 metres deep. I think the County Council needs to find money to raise the track, and I think that is more important than installing solar lights.Andrew Bethunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02711423177266767155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-76868463409565053.post-63061989332913616512013-01-08T10:51:15.788+00:002013-01-08T10:51:15.788+00:00the letter writer is clearly wrong; the only reaso...the letter writer is clearly wrong; the only reason the cycleway isn't as bad towards Cambridge is that the land was already at the same height as the busway is now. If the land hadn't been level, I'm sure we'd have seen problems at the Cambridge end too.Alhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817806128052425511noreply@blogger.com
