Richmond Cycling Campaign

RCC had a meeting with some of the officers at the council about cycle parking in the borough. They have identified many sites around the borough that need attenion, most notably Richmond station.

They asked if RCC would be willing to help. I said, oh yes. So now it's up to you, this is your chance to get your views across.
