Have you used the Meriden Park's new footpaths? What do you think of them?
Graham Reece, of Garsmouth Way, criticised the"soft" path in Meriden Park near the A41 and questioned if the correct material has been used.
The 63-year-old saw the barriers had been removed on December 18 - leading him to believe it was fine to use - before voicing his irritation.there is already a tyre mark, adding: “It can’t really be used for cycling. Kids can’t ride their bikes on it. It’s pretty useless.”Watford Borough Council replied to his social media post saying the path had not been finished and would be completed after Christmas.
But Mr Reece said: “You would assume that once they take the barriers away the footpath would be good to use.“They really should keep people off it until it hardens. I was there on December 28 and it is still soft and hasn’t hardened at all.Watford Borough Council declined to answer why the barriers were removed before it had been finished, but said extending the path around the park was the number one improvement suggested by Meriden residents during a consultation.
Mr Reece does not believe the footpath is fit for purpose until it is completely finished because currently the path is 'soft'.
