Weston’s MP John Penrose has welcomed news that Government cash for promoting walking or cycling to school and work will be three times higher next year.
John said: “We all know that walking and cycling are healthier and greener than driving, so knowing there’s a safe and convenient footpath or cycleway can be the extra spur that’s needed to get us out of our cars and into the fresh air. The Council can use this threefold increase in Government cash to make it easier and safer for us all.”
