Mucker1884 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Sorry, don't have a link... Word in da hood is that there is to be an upcoming closure of the shared footpath/cycle path (Route 6), as it exits/enters the NE corner of Alvo Park heading for PPS (and onwards to City Centre, of course)... specifically that tiny little bit that dips under the railway bridge that has had scaffolding on it for months and months! Apparently to be closed from 21:00hrs Sat 2nd March to 17:00hrs Friday 26th April. Not checked our fixtures, but I'd imagine this will have some effect for those parking over that way and walking (or cycling) in on matchdays? No idea whether official/marked detours will be signed? The non-committal to the shooting of any messengers during these difficult times would be most appreciated. 🍻🐏 Crewton and DavesaRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there! *I changed that from the word "piss", as I am led to believe you have certain powers of banhammery around here, when it comes to the use of "adult vocabulary"! 😁 Day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've finally dragged my arse to the park run on a Saturday morning at Alvaston and enjoy a walk along that path. That's screwed me up for a couple of months.

Very nice 😅 It was actually the nobbers who use that particular cycle path as a racetrack that I was referring to though, not responsible users of electric bikes, as I'm sure you are. Walk or cycle from Allo to town on any given day and you can't miss 'em (literally). Mucker1884 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
