Farron offers to "help fix the puncture"
Local MP Tim Farron is today offering to host conciliatory talks to find a way forwards for the Kendal town cycle path. Plans for a £400,000 cycle route linking Kirkland to Dockray Hall have recently floundered following members of the County Council voting against the scheme due to concerns over the loss of 40 free car park spaces. Environment and cycling campaigners have been outraged by this decision, and Mr Farron has offered to step in to help to "fix the puncture" to hopefully find a way to resolve the dispute to the satisfaction of all sides and allow the cycle path to go ahead.
