How to give your views / use this site…

Welcome to Cycle Bradford Consults, the cyclists consultation portal for planned developments on the highways, byways and development sites of Bradford district.

This site will be regularly updated with the latest consultation requests from council officers giving the cycling community the opportunity to share views and shape decisions on cycling related infrastructure development.

How to respond to a consultation
There is a set and agreed procedure for how to respond to each consultation request.
Each post will have included:

• a plan of the development,
• a code or reference,
• a consultation window time period, and
• the email address of the correct officer to respond to.

Each response must be sent direct to any and all named officers.
Please also ensure to state which organisation(s) you represent or are affiliated with (e.g. CTC, Sustrans, British Cycling, Breeze Network, B-Spoke etc).
If you have no organisational affiliation thats fine but please say so.

We will not (for the sake of annoying those who only want events type news) be posting news of every consultation posts to the CycleBradford Google Group.
If you would like to receive regular emails to notify of consultation requests please email tom.jones@bradford.gov.uk to state your interest and your name will be added to a CycleBradford Consults distribution list.
