Residents asked local councillor Sarah Bevan to explore more facilities around the village for cyclists wishing to leave the car at home for short journeys round the village. Working with cycling charity Life cycle, Cllr Bevan secured 4 new cycle stands for various locations here, including this one at the Laxton Way entrance to Beacon Field.

Cllr Bevan said:

“Once again, I've put in measures at no cost to the tax payer - these cycle stands were provided free of charge thanks to Life Cycle and the good will of our contractors. I'm keen to promote environmentally friendly measures wherever I can, and residents with small children especially can make good use of this cycle stand which has been installed very near to the toddler play area”.
