Cycle-Rail Toolkit upgrade-have your say

12 December 2022 by Admin Leave a Comment

Dear Forum Members

The Cycle-Rail Working Group and Sustrans are seeking user feedback to help update the Cycle-Rail Toolkit. Members may recall that the Cycle-Rail Toolkit 2 was published by the Rail Delivery Group in April 2016 and remains the principal extant guidance to train operators on facilities for cycle users.

The feedback survey can be found here: Snap Surveys (welcomesyourfeedback.net)

Please feel free to pass this invitation on to other cycle-rail users.

The survey is expected to stay open to Christmas/New Year but a quick response would be helpful.

NB – Monday’s Panorama will now be a programme about the political news in Westminster, programme date rescheduled and TBC.

This Summer Ryedale Cycle Forum were asked to contribute towards a BBC Panorama documentary about road safety in the UK and recent changes to the Highway Code. A few members of the group provided a contribution to the programme, which is due to be aired on BBC One at 8pm on Monday 24th October.

The programme will also be available on the BBC iPlayer after the airing – https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001dj03

Well done to everyone involved.

Highways England has installed a short, two way cycle path alongsde the A64 at Musley Bank, west of Malton. It directly joins the road from Huttons Ambo with York Road, near the Malton Enterprise Park.

Cyclists from Malton can safely reach Huttons Ambo and wheel over the River Derwent suspension bridge to reach local roads to the south and perhaps on to York.

Travelling by train with a bike

Good news for cyclists traveling by train with a bike, to and from Malton, Seamer and Scarborough. From Sunday May 19th, Transpennine Express will accept cycle reservations up to 10 minutes before a train’s departure from any station. This is a vast improvement on the previous and highly unpopular 24 hours notice that was introduced by TPE last year.
Details of how to reserve are found at Transpennine Express website.

A green target for local schools

In a rural area, some people have to drive their children to school. But in Ryedale’s towns and villages many families do live close enough to cycle to school. For many we need to make it safer for them to do so.
