Mark Sumner, the Rights of Way officer for Barnet Council, came to the April meeting. He is in the process of collating Rights of Way to be added to the Definitive Map. It is intended to publish a map on the council website in 3-4 months. 

Mark would welcome input from the group to identify any paths/bridleways/tracks that we feel should be included that would be useful for cyclists in the borough. It might be that we are not sure of the legal status of some paths that we use and it would be useful to clarify their status. We said we would collate suggestions from the group and forward them to Mark.

Please send any suggestions to alison.ewington@ntlworld.com . Give enough detail so any path/bridleway/track can be identified easily on a map. It would be useful to have any info on why it would be useful to be included ie avoiding a difficult junction, provides a good route to shops/schools. All need to be within Barnet – but they could be links to routes in Herts or other boroughs.

7pm: Campaign Group meeting to discuss local campaigning issues, including improvements to the A1000, the council’s Transport Strategy, and how to make Barnet a better place for cyclists. All are welcome to attend, so if you want to find out more, please come along!

8pm: Mark Sumner from Barnet Council will come to talk to the group about paths and Rights of Way in Barnet. This is your chance to ask questions and help shape the way paths are managed in Barnet.

AGM: following the discussion we will have the Annual General Meeting of the Barnet Borough Group of the London Cycling Campaign. The Treasurer will present the accounts. Committee officers will be elected: we have nominations for the posts of LCC Co-ordinator, Treasurer and Campaigns Group Co-ordinator. Volunteers are needed for LCC Rides Co-ordinator. Any nominations for committee posts and motions to be debated at the AGM must be sent by 23 April at the latest to alison.ewington@ntlworld.com

We will conclude with a quick round up of anything else happening in the group – and at some point we will fit in a cup of coffee!
