The #SunriseCycleway on the beautiful Northumbrian coast, from Whitley Bay to Tynemouth, traffic free for all! :0)
Spanish City to Tynemouth
Joined August 2020
Just reviewing the plans for phase 2 of the Seafront Sustainable Route (aka @SunriseCycleway) and spotted this. Now @NTCouncilTeam have abandoned the Preston Rd route and made no substantive progress on the Tynemouth Rd route, how is access to North Shields being improved?
The abandonment of the Preston Road cyclepath by @NTCouncilTeam @NTynesideLab goes against so many of their commitments to cycling, active travel, regeneration, public health, and net zero. We want answers from the council and from leading councillors. https://t.co/1h4Xov28La

THIS IS WHY WE DO IT π Longest ride for this little legend on her balance bike. She set the pace, took her time, stopped to chat, pushed hard and had fun. Smiles all round ππ² @SunriseCycleway

When a local cycleway is good enough for people taking part in an 'ultra' race, you know it's a surefire winner! https://t.co/bnljOiGLQo

Great to see our new regional mayor enjoying the @SunriseCycleway - we look forward to seeing what @NorthEast_CA will do for North Tyneside and the wider region for walking, cycling and wheeling.
Loved seeing so many families enjoying the new seafront cycle route in Tynemouth, enjoying the sun the views. In our North East we want everyone to have the freedom to walk, wheel or cycle safely. Thanks @Chris_Boardman and @simonlightwood for joining on our little bike ride!π²

βItβs been great today to discuss how we can replicate the Seafront Sustainable Route across the region, to give more people the option to travel how they want to.β ππππππ @SunriseCycleway

Build it and they will come.... Every bike rack (another 5 to left of shot) taken up with a bike π Plus this ebike group off a cruise ship spotted at Cullercoats and now parked up at Tynemouth, they would have used phase 1 @SunriseCycleway to get there.

@NthTyneCycleSoc @SunriseCycleway It'll be interesting to compare new available data to the previous @SunriseCycleway pop-up. Hopefully, @NTCouncilTeam will install a counter, and we'll all be able to see the growth and for that to be calculated into impact to allow for further investment.
