Update October 2011

The safer walkers and cyclists route between Stratton and North Cerney has had a thumbs up from local residents.

Latest work includes the following:

• Lots of new gates have been installed/repaired.
• The surface scraped in parts to remove years (centuries?) of accumulated mud.  
• Construction of a new 'French' drain near the telephone exchange in North Cerney to stop the path becoming waterlogged.
• Deployed just under 20 waymarks so that it is now suitably waymarked at virtually every gate between Cirencester (Bowling Green) and North Cerney. 

Much has been achieved within a very small budget - often with the help of the landowners, for which we are very grateful.

The slide show below illustrates some of the changes.  These may look a bit 'raw' at the moment, but will soon blend in.  Many residents have expressed their appreciation of the changes - especially the improved gates.  The group is turning its attentions to the northern end of the path where both residents and Rendcomb College have shown a lot of interest in extending the route from North Cerney to Rendcomb.
