‘Cycle to Work’ scheme a success
Council minutes said the ‘Cycle to Work’ scheme, which has been operating for two years, saw over 40 councillors and employees availing of a government supported programme to encourage greater use of bicycles for travelling to and from places of work.
Councillor Jason Atkinson was seconded by Councillor John Finlay in his proposal that the Council continues to promote the scheme this year by encouraging staff and elected memebers to purchase and use bicycles for work related journeys.
