Essex County Council have been in touch about the Ride London event due to take place in Essex, including through parts of the Brentwood and Ongar constituency, next year. I am aware that while thousands of people thoroughly enjoyed taking part in the event last year, be it by cycling the route, or cheering on those taking part as they rode past local houses, others were frustrated by road closures and access arrangements.
Essex County Council's Cabinet Member for Highways Maintenance and Sustainable Transport, Cllr Lee Scott said: “RideLondon-Essex 2022 was a successful inaugural event but we want to make the RideLondon-Essex 2023 even better.
“The RideLondon route is undergoing a process of review and we will be asking residents and businesses for their input to build upon the spirit and success of this year’s event.”
