Local council @RedditchMatters plans to demolish a ped bridge & re-route #NCN5, forcing 🚴♂️🚴♀️ & walkers to cross the rat run it spans.
*AT THE SAME TIME*, the council is to straighten the road, removing bends, so rat-running drivers aren't forced to slow down.

So as well as losing a vital part of #NCN5, 🚴♂️🚴♀️ & walkers will have to negotiate a road on which motorists are encouraged to (& will) drive much faster.
So much for @RedditchMatters being 'ahead of the curve' on green issues...

It's the council's 2nd incursion into #NCN5 in the area. It recently built a road across the path for access into a nearby housing development. As with all such developments here, car-dependence is built in, with #ActiveTransport very much an afterthought.
