Welcome to the Sustrans Lichfield Rangers blog. 
Sustrans is a leading UK charity enabling people to travel by foot, bike or public transport for more of the journeys we make. Please click on the following links to see videos of the Sustrans story... In the beginning and Building the network.

In 1995 Sustrans were granted money from the Millennium Lottery Fund to create the National Cycle Network.

Our section is the 12.5 mile stretch of NCN 5 and NCN 54 between Burntwood and Alrewas, along with link routes to the NMA and LTV Rail Station. We ride these routes regularly, notifying the relevant authorities of any problems. We also maintain the signage of these the routes and try to keep them clear of vegetation where possible.

We try to meet up every month. If the weather is bad we just have a meeting, otherwise after a chat, a cup of coffee and maybe a bacon butty, we set off on a workday.

If you'd like to help us with our bit of the NCN please contact us via Sustrans.
