Huge moos if true… New cycle-friendly cattle grids fail to stop cows escaping and roaming free on bike path, causing “rush hour gridlock” cycling
A Cambridge City Council spokesperson said: “We have found previously that cows can straddle narrow cattle grids and squeeze between bollards, and shared our concerns with County Council colleagues. We understand measures are to be put in place that will reduce the risk of cows escaping, whilst retaining the desired open cycle and footpath routes.”
“We put in the new cattle grids as part of our Active Travel programme which replaced the vehicle and pedestrian gates,” a spokesperson said.
