§ 9. Mr. Steenasked the Secretary of State for Transport how many miles of cycle track have been constructed by local authorities on disused railway track in the most recent period for which figures are available.
§ Mrs. ChalkerWe do not maintain such records centrally, but a recent consultant's study commissioned by 357W my Department has shown the scope for converting disused railway lines into cycle tracks. I hope that publication of the report will encourage more local authorities to take up this idea.
