New cycle way opened! Medmerry - Pagham

A new, 3km cycle route has been completed, linking Pagham Nature Reserve with Medmerry Nature Reserve, boosting facilities for residents, visitors and wildlife enthusiasts alike. The county council’s Public Rights of Way team worked with The Manhood Peninsula Partnership on ideas to bolster tourism in the area - and found that cycling provision was under represented. From this, a £400,000 scheme was devised. It includes: • 1.2Km of shared pedestrian/cycling pathway • re-construction/improvement on cycle route 88 • 1.7Km of improvements to the path between the new route and flood defences at Selsey. 

The new cycle route is across the road from the RSPB’s Pagham Harbour Local Nature Reserve (PO20 7NE).
