The Communications Team are regularly contacted by members of the public concerned about the behaviour of Hinchingbrooke student cyclists on their way to and from school. We will be giving out a message to students in morning registration and assemblies outlining the areas of concern and would like you to support us by discussing these issues with your child.

The Police have reported that a lady who lives at Post Street Godmanchester was recently knocked over as she left her front door; a lot of the properties along Post Street & Cambridge Rd front straight onto the pavement and this is not the first report of someone being hit or near misses.

A resident of Brampton Road, regularly has difficulties leaving their driveway because students wearing headphones are not aware of their surroundings and moving vehicles.

We understand that some of our students:-

• Cycle on the footpath in Godmanchester (this is an offence) Please note that the cycle path ends opposite the Black Bull Pub
• Cycle over the ‘Footbridge’ into Godmanchester – (this is an offence)
• Cycle through Huntingdon High Street – (This is prohibited between 10.00 and 16.00)
• Cycle through the grounds of the Leonard Cheshire Home in Brampton and the grounds of Millfield Court in Huntingdon. (Both are an offence as these areas are private property)
