I TOOK a walk along the canal towpath from Ridge Lane to the aqueduct, down to the riverside path and then to Sainsbury on Sunday.

It may be a very pleasant route for cyclists but the stretch between the aqueduct and Sainsbury offers little comfort to the elderly or infirm in the way of seating and there is little to be seen.

I am pleased cyclists have a safe place to ride but it would be nice if the council considered the rest of us too.
