New cycle and pedestrian paths proposed THE installation of upgraded cycle and foot paths through Kings Park is set to get underway, thanks to a government grant. Starting in late July, the work will be funded through cash from the government’s Transforming Cities Fund (TCF) and will form part of an 8km ‘sustainable travel route’ between Bournemouth railway station and Jumpers Common in Christchurch. Councillor Mike Greene, transport portfolio holder for BCP Council, said: “Kings Park is an important location connecting Christchurch and Bournemouth. These planned improvements will really open up sustainable travel as a viable, attractive, healthy and safe way to commute between these areas.
