Keep Ashton Court Open

The road through Ashton Court is the safest way for us (my wife, me & 15-month old daughter) to get from our place in Leigh Woods to the gym (DL) in Long Ashton, where we prefer to cycle regardless the wheather. If the park is closed we have to use the A369 in the dark, which is with all the traffic (and some really mad drivers) not really an option, especially with the baby on the back seat or in the trailer. The only alternative is to take the car.

To force cyclists onto a busy main road as alternative is crazy!

Many people rely on Ashton court as a safe cycling route to and from work, to close it so early is madness as the alternative is a busy unlit main road.

Ashton is a vital open green space and the lungs of the city. Keep it open!

Corruption in the council once again. Reduce councilors and planners and use their salaries to keep the park open.

Any situation where cyclists can cycle safely away from the traffic should be maintained. The roads you have to travel on if you can't access Ashton Court, are dangerous and busy. A route through Ashton Court keeps people safe (cyclists and drivers alike!) It must be accessible!

I cycle through Ashton Court everyday on my way home from work, and the gates closing at 5.15pm in winter makes it really challenging for me. Perhaps keeping Clifton gate open a fraction like they did what it snowed, or creating a gap in the wall close to Clifton Gate and a proper path from the wall to the bike path.

I walk through Ashton Court estate to get to work in the morning. If the estate is closed in the early morning I'll be forced to add to Bristol's disgraceful traffic problems.
