Title: More money for Cycle Rail scheme
Post by: CyclingSid on December 15, 2017, 10:36:42
The DfT has announced yesterday £4 million extra for the Cycle Rail scheme as part of a larger tranche (£200M) of funding for roads. No detail of who is actually going to get the money, presumably divvied up by the Cycle Rail Working Group.

Is there a link for the "Cycle Rail Working Group" - Google has failed to deliver me to a web page that does anything more than have a reference to them.

I doubt they have a web presence.

Apologies for the lack of links, original announcement at
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/200-million-funding-boost-for-englands-roads
the link from the announcement to Cycle Rail scheme leads to link to the Cycle Rail Working Group which gives you the Cycle Rail Awards 2017. http://cycle-rail.co.uk/ redirects to Rail Delivery Group (sorry RDG means Reading to me).
So ChrisB is right as usual.

The working group itself has no page within the RDG website.
