Localised high and moderate levels of air pollution from particulate matter, are currently experienced in North West Northern Ireland. The weather situation is unlikely to change significantly over the next 24 hours which may cause this pollution to persist.

A West End resident – along with Dundee Cycle Hub – has set up a survey to gauge the interest in a pump track facility in Dundee. 

This is a facility he has been keen to get in Dundee.     It is basically a looped track and consists of a series of rollers and corners (berms) primarily made with asphalt they can be ridden by many different types of wheeled equipment such as bikes, skateboards, scooters etc. 

They offer a low barrier to entry and can be used by both beginner and experienced users. Whilst this is similar in some ways to a skatepark it is quite a different facility to most skateparks due to the design / flow and the asphalt material that most pump tracks are made with.

A first step is just to demonstrate the demand so the survey is intended to do just that. The link to the survey is at https://forms.gle/xCmaiKsWnCQJR2S77 – all welcome to take part.
