We, believe that cycling should be encouraged as a boost to fitness and good health and a sound environmentaly friendly alternative to the car. Cyclists should expect that they can make their journeys safely and the use of dedicated cycle lanes on highways or shared cycle and pedestrian pathways can make a significant contribution towards encouragement of this mode of transport. On major routes through the borough of Fareham the current provision for cyclists is sadly lacking.
I, the undersigned urge Fareham Borough Council to work with Hampshire County Council as the responsible authority to improve the provision for cyclists on the major routes in Fareham Borough with a particular priority to action on the main A27 route [The Avenue and Southampton Road] between Fareham Town Centre, Titchfield and the Western wards.
