The FANTASTIC FIVE assembled at the head of the River Sheaf Walk to help SUSTRANS stalwart Simon with the upkeep of the local walking and cycling network.
This section of the city centre network is a great connection to get people off the ring road and to/from the train station especially. Unfortunately it's also a bit of a litter hot spot and regularly becomes a wet leaf trap making the path slippery and less appealing to use.

In a small space of time the path was looking a lot cleaner, clearer and better lit so will hopefully be safer and more attractive for all to use in the future.

Until next time, happy running! :)
Look after the National Cycle Network in Sheffield - keeping it open and clear for use, developing new routes, generally promoting Active Travel in Sheffield
