IN this age of caring for the environment and using our resources responsively I would like to think my fianc and I are doing the 'right' thing by cycling to work most days along the Bridgwater & Taunton Canal.

However, we have both noticed in the past few weeks how tall the weeds have become between the Crown Medical Centre and Firepool, making cycling, and passing especially, dangerous.

Who is responsible for the upkeep of the towpath/cyclepath?

I've never known the weeds to grow to this height and suggest that action be taken before they seed, thus making matters worse.

How many people are put off cycling by 8ft weeds?
