Singletraction is very pleased to announce its involvement in a brand new MTB development in York.

The City of York Council has commissioned a design of a three phase bike park based at the Rawcliffe Country Park, just next to the Park & Ride station. Phase one is to be funded by Big Lottery and will focus on providing a facility for children and young people, with phases two (for more experienced riders) and three (a multi user track) to follow when funding had been secured. It is currently in the design stages, with Dinsdale Moorland Services Limited doing the course layout, and work will hopefully begin in the springtime, subject to planning permission being granted by this time.

Part of the tender requirements state that volunteers are to be involved in the construction, maintenance and ongoing development of the park. This means whoever is doing the building will be looking for local support and input, both with planning and building.

Between now and when the first shovel hits the ground, we need to build up local interest to gauge what sort of response can be expected when construction begins.

More news will be posted as and when it develops, but in the meantime, if you live in the York area, here is a great opportunity to get involved with what promises to be an exciting new venture.

To register interest, and to receive future updates on this project, please email iansikora@singletraction.co.uk
