Routes scheme tops lottery vote

Posted on December 12, 2007

A scheme to build a national network of cycle and walking routes has won a £50m lottery grant by topping a public vote.
The Sustrans: Connect2 project, which will improve travel in 79 communities, beat three other environmental groups with 42% of all ballots cast.

The People’s £50 Million Lottery is the largest ever publicly-decided award.

Sustrans CEO and founder John Grimshaw said: “The hard work starts now to build those bridges, tunnels, crossings and networks of paths.”
