Welcome to the Blog for Warwickshire Sustrans Rangers. At present you will only be able to read the blog and not post to it, but i am adding all Warwickshire Rangers as contributors and when that is done I will let you all know and you will be able to post as well as reading all the posts. Workday Route 41 at Long Itchington Last Saturday we had our first workday for a considerable time and we had a number of new rangers join us. It was a successful day despite the showers and even a hailstorm! We were able to clear a lot of overhanging branches, cut down some of the nettles and brambles that were threatening to invade the path and fill some nasty holes. The surface is in a poor state in some places and the large amount of horse traffic has not helped as once the hard surface is broken they quickly churn up the soft earth below. We managed to put a tonne of stone into the various holes and could have probably used twice that amount. Thanks to all who came along, we will return to do more work on this section in the coming months. The local footpath group were also working on replacing some steps up the embankment where a path crosses the track and we were able to lend a hand and they returned the favour with some clearing for us.
