One to watch out for if you use the Newport to Cowes cycle track. This in from the council, in their own words. Ed
Parts of the Newport to Cowes cycle track will be closed over the next five weeks to allow for extensive maintenance and resurfacing.
The works will begin on Wednesday 1 February and will include filling in potholes, resurfacing parts of the track and repairing cracks.
Four phases
The maintenance will happen over four separate phases. The first will involve the closure of the track between Arctic Road and Medham. Over the course of the next five weeks, parts of the track will also be closed between Medham to Stag Lane, Stag Lane to Dodnor Lane and Dodnor Lane to Riverway.
The dates when these closures will begin will be advertised both on site and on the council’s website under the roadwork’s section.
Diversions will be in place during the works. The council apologises for any disruption caused during these works.

How about finishing the Newport to Shide route first?
Offensive comment?
I thought that was completed, or meant to have been completed by the end of last year. Anyone asked the council what is happening ?
Offensive comment?
The part from the council offices, along Coppins Bridge through to Matalan is still waiting to be opened I believe.
Offensive comment?
How about fixing the roads first?
Offensive comment?
How about deciding to slash road spending from 2006/7, then saying we need to change to a discredited 25 year PFI scam?
Offensive comment?
Yes, but only an idiot would do that. Oh, wait a min….
