Good afternoon, Prynhawn da
Recently we have had complaints regarding the safe use of the shared use path. The following advice is taken from the Swansea Gov website:
All usersTry to keep to the left when there's no markings to say otherwise. If there are markings, try to stay on your side. Take all litter home with you and clean up after your dog. Use shared paths safely and be considerate to other users. If you are listening to headphones, please take extra care of your surroundings and safety. Walkers and runnersIf the shared path is busy, avoid being in large groups if you can. If you're taking a dog for a walk on a shared path please keep them under control. Don't trail a lead across the path, causing an obstruction. If another path user stops or waits for you to pass, thank them as this encourages everybody to share the space better. If you have children with you, help them to give space safely when cyclists or horses are passing. Listen out for cyclists' bells and keep left to allow them to pass. Take care around horse riders, leave them plenty of room especially when approaching from behind. CyclistsPlease keep your speed down and give way to other users. Use a bell or call out when approaching others from behind. Remember that some people might not hear you because they have hearing issues or might be wearing headphones. Take particular care where a path is narrow and wait for space to overtake safely. Groups of cyclists should ride in single file when approaching pedestrians on a shared pathway. Horse ridersPlease keep to a walking pace when passing other users and no more than a trot at other times.
Thank you for reading, let us all take responsibility for everyone's enjoyment, Diolch Mel
