Question 15 - we asked:

Colleges like Stephenson, Josephine Butler and Collingwood now have an excellent off-road cycle route recently opened by the University which links as far as the Bill Bryson Library and the Whitechurch junction. But anyone wanting to continue along Church Street to reach New Elvet and the city centre is faced with cycling on Church Street, which often has heavy traffic. What measures would you promote to complete the cycle link into the city?

We asked this question only in Durham South.

Given the historic importance of Halgarth and Church Streets, the only way to mitigate the problem would be to make the roads one way enabling enough width for cycle routes. Pretends Bridge access banks are two steep.
