Funding for tunnel path secured
Work is likely to begin early next year on a new cycle and footpath through old railway tunnels to the south of Bath.
Bath and North East Somerset Council has signalled its formal agreement to help with the funding of the Two Tunnels Project, which will link the city with Midford.
The decision by transport cabinet member Cllr Charles Gerrish ends the uncertainty for supporters of the project, which has secured £1 million of lottery funding.
