Cyclists on the greensward

Reported anonymously at 11:39, Mon 20 July 2020

Sent to Arun District Council and West Sussex County Council less than a minute later. FixMyStreet ref: 2208198.

I walk my dogs on the greensward daily, as i live in Botany Close, there are quite a lot of cyclists going quite fast, my little Chihuahua chased one before I could stop her and she was kicked, and rolled over three times, she seems okay but the cyclist shouted abuse as they all do, the sign saying no cycling on the path has been removed by one of them several months ago, can we have another sign, they really are a nuisance, there are a lot of dog walkers on the green and I know of two dogs who have been run over without the cyclist stopping, just using fowl language, this has been going on for a long time and it should be stopped

  • Walked today. the Greensward though the gate onto the Willowhayne, and 3 cyclists came flying past us, took no notice of the big no cycling sign, told them no cycling and just got a load of abuse, I had six dogs and had to rush to get them all together, it is a nightmare for dog walkers

  • Cyclists totally ignore the no cycles sign, and went past us so quick yesterday, my chihuahua who has had a operation her leg, chased them, she is limping today, after hurting herself, I am so frustrated that people do not care for large signs straight in front of them, and just abuse us when we say no cycling on this part of the greensward, I am going to take pictures now

  • When are we going to get a simple no cycling sign on the path at Botany Close, I have been asking for months is it that difficult to get a sign, we pay plenty of council tax in this road, but cannot get a simple sign, I do wonder how efficient our council is, how many times do I have to ask for a sign, it’s not rocket science
