Issue - meetings

John Lauder, National Director, Sustrans, informed the meeting of their walk/cycle promotion, which is Scottish Government funded.  Sustrans remit covers 2,000 miles of cycle / walk paths throughout Scotland, “traffic free paths” with access controls to stop vehicles.  Mr Lauder advised that most paths follow former railway lines and that funding has been sourced for the next three years; also that Sustrans hope to negotiate land to complete all the paths, with maintenance agreements being signed by partners for sections of the paths.
