On your bike!
A public consultation exercise is being launched as the first step towards a Walking and Cycling Strategy for the county borough.
The strategy will aim to maintain current routes and provide new ones for walkers and cyclists, as well as promote the health, economic and environmental benefits of these alternatives to using a car.
Councillor Lyn Morgan, Cabinet Member for Wellbeing said: "I welcome this. Walking and cycling are some of the best ways of keeping fit. This can only improve the health of residents of the county borough."
Copies of the draft strategy will be available in all libraries, Tourist Information Centres, Civic Offices and via the Bridgend County Borough Council website.
Local interest groups including the Local Access Forum, RNIB, Sustrans and town and community councils will also be advised of the consultation.
