Wording of Motion Accepted by Full Council on 1st April

"Council notes the strength of feeling expressed by the citizens of Bristol
against the possible shared use by rapid transit of the much loved
Bristol-Bath cycle path."

"Council further recognises that walking and cycling are vital components of
the strategy to encourage more sustainable and healthier travel behaviour in
our city."

"While fully recognising the vital importance of improving public transport,
Bristol City Council will oppose route proposals which undermine the current
and future expansion of walking and cycling in Bristol, and, in particular,
will oppose any threat to the current or future use of the Bristol to Bath
cycle path."

"Council requires further information about the various route options,
including those on roads and for these to be the subject of full public
consultation."

"Council fully supports the Executive Member for Access & Environment in
making these views known to the West of England Partnership."
