I can't comment on the cycle path, but have just travelled down Dan Bank and have to say it is beginning to look very good indeed.  I shall be interested to watch the various trees and other plantings maturing.   :D

I agree. I like the new look. I quite like being able to see the sky!

But then again, I'm bound to like it as I'm a highway engineer by trade.... (not working for the council I may add).

Having completed the planting yesterday, over 1600 trees, all we need is a little time and like yourself, people will hopefully appreciate all the proactive work we have done on behalf of smbc. We will be irrigating tomorrow and now it's also been hydroseeded it will soon be very green.  :)

That is actually for access and egress from the pavement / cycle path onto the road and has yet to be painted green (i believe)

I've seen the new state of the art cycle lane on Dan Bank. It starts at the bottom for about 6 foot then ends, then it continues at the top for about 20 foot and, yep you guessed it, it ends! Whats that all about?  ???

After 18 months of trying to sell my house I have now moved off Stockport road so sadly may not now wittiness first hand the tens of thousands who will be cycling past my house once the track is completed Shame !   Only problem is where I live now in Marple I have just seen men in yellow jackets and hard hats inspecting the trees next to my new house !!
              Never buy a house next to trees .
