The Roxburgh Gorge cycle trail is back on track. The Central Otago District Council has applied to itself for resource consent to carry out work and build structures associated with the trail.
With this week's announcement of another $7 million for new Otago cycleways, the Government has again secured the yellow jersey in the race to improve the country's cycling facilities. But, where in the peloton is the Dunedin City Council placed, how hard is it pedalling and do cyclists think it's on the right track?
A plan by the New Zealand Transport Agency to create a cycleway over the Caversham Hill is not the best option for cyclists, according to the group pushing to be able to use a former rail tunnel through the hill.
