ANGRY pedestrians in Willaston will welcome new calming measures on a busy footpath.

A 'No Cycling' sign has been erected on the footpath between Bayley Road and Derwent Close, often used by parents and school children.

Willaston councillor Brian Silvester was delighted with the development.

"This footpath is heavily used, particularly by parents taking their children to and from the primary school. I have received complaints about cyclists cycling along this footpath and hopefully they will now dismount and walk through."
