RED-TAPE safety checks were not completed in time for cycling to be legally allowed on
Worthing's western promenade.
The borough council had hoped the shared-used cycle scheme from
Splash Point to George V Avenue could have been introduced in time
for the bank holiday weekend (August 29).
But a West Sussex County Council spokeswoman said checks on relevant
bylaws and regulations had not been completed in time.
It is now hopes cyclists will get their new, off-road route later this month, when both they and pedestrians will share the promenade without a specific cycle lane being provided.
