Connecting Rural South Hams

For a number of years, Rebecca has been working with the Y2P. Yealmpton to Plymouth Active Travel Group as they campaign to get a better link between Yealmpton and Plymouth for cyclists and walkers.

Many hours have been spent discussing the best routes and options for tackling the issue and had some useful input from the teams at South Hams District Council, Sustrans, Plymouth Cycling Campaign and PL21 Transition in Ivybridge.

Work is ongoing ...

Would you cycle between Yealmpton and Plymouth if there was a more suitable route?
