Progress includes installing on-street residential cycle storage across the city, delivery of on-road Bikeability cycle training in every primary school and completing the Broughty Ferry to Monifieth off-road route. They are also developing plans for the Active Freeways programme to provide dedicated routes, connecting communities, including Ninewells, Lochee, Stobswell and Strathmartine to the city centre.

I thought the theme and content of the speakers and breakout sessions were great this year. Packed a punch! The roundtable discussions were really useful.
