August Newsletter

August 2016

 

 
 

Welcome to our e-newsletter!

We are still enjoying summer riding but, more importantly the Tavistock Place cycle route is approaching the end of its one year experimental widening and the scheme is going out to consultation soon.
We’ll need as much support as possible to ensure that the wider lanes can become a permanent feature. There is much opposition to this, particularly from taxi drivers and the Imperial Hotels group. More recently a group called BRAG (Bloomsbury Residents Action Group) has been formed to oppose the Tavistock Place scheme.
If you would be willing to spend a few hours helping us, please contact us at info@camdencyclists.org.uk.

Other ways to keep in touch and get involved!

Our committee relies on volunteers, and we need a few more to ensure our vital work continues. If you are passionate about cycling and improving the cycling experience in Camden, and can spare 3-4 hours a month, we would love to hear from you. If you’re interested, contact Angela.
We’ll really need all hands on deck to defend Tavistock Place soon so please try to help us!
