Alex helped to secure £500,000 from the Government’s Active Travel Capability Fund to provide a cash injection into sustainable and active travel in Gloucestershire.
The funding will be used to construct the Cheltenham to Bishops Cleeve Cycle Scheme.
It is expected that the route will extend from the existing Honeybourne Cycle Link at Prince of Wales Stadium and then will link with and broadly follow the A435 corridor.
Alex said: "Investing in public transport, as well as walking and cycling are crucial to building a cleaner, greener, healthier future. With vision and common sense, a historic opportunity to improve transport in Cheltenham can be seized."
