Representation Summary:

I object to the proposals take National Cycle Network Route 52 through Abbey Fields in Kenilworth.

Abbey Fields is a Scheduled Monument. It is also area that is free from fast moving vehicle traffic. It should be kept that way.

The proposed Kenilworth to Warwick section of NCN Route 52 makes no sense. It bypasses Kenilworth Castle, a prime tourist attraction. It ignores the needs of commuters. Cyclists living in Kenilworth and working in Warwick (or vice versa) do not use Rouncil Lane/Woodcote Lane. They use the direct route along A429 as per the cycleway in LTP 2006 -2011.
