Bath Bike Park
We are really pleased to have been appointed by Bath and North East Somerset Council to work with Pedal Progression on a planning application for a new Bike Park on the site of Entry Hill Golf Course in Bath. The Bike Park will be a pay-to-ride facility with a range of mountain bike trails and pump track. The rest of the park will be free to access including a green perimeter trail for dog-walkers, runners and family cycling. There will also be a play park, bike shop, cycle hire, community garden, allotment space and picnic area. This is a really exciting new facility for Bath and Entran are pleased to be offering environmental and transport consultancy services to help bring this project forward.
