Are you up to your knees in the green stuff? Want to help us take care of Highfield’s lovely grassland?

A great opportunity has come up to join a free course with our expert scyther Steve and learn all about this traditional and sustainable method of managing grassland 🌾

Happy hump day 💚

Shake off those post bank holiday blues by getting out for a walk or wheel today – you'll be glad you did!

Grim. Just picked these up from fallowfield loop. Spread all over. Luckily I missed them with the little one. But all ages enjoying this morning. Sad.

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

And even more amazing to see a non standard cycle able to access the loop and ride the length. Thanks again @ManCityCouncil for making sure the access points and on-loop width restrictions have been made accessible 🎉

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Amazing to see so many people out enjoying the bank holiday weekend on the #FallowfieldLoop today!
Extra bonus: the poor surface where the old chicane was between Princess and Yew Tree has been fully resurfaced! Thanks to @ManCityCouncil / @SustransNorth for getting that done 👍

We have one Bike Bus on the Loop on Fridays that I know of... Any more?

[FRideDays Bike Bus @fridedaysbb]

Route planning is vital to make your #bikebus practical and fun. Did you know that routes with more left turns work best? Download our FREE FRideDays Bike bus toolkit for route planning tips or get in touch for support. @schwalbeuk @sustrans #fridaywecycle https://t.co/8QTsnyS3hR

Hi @ManCityCouncil one of your signs leading to the #FallowfieldLoop (aka #ManchesterCycleway on this sign) is leaning... Corner Wilbraham & Wellington, M14.

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Anyone up for planning a walk involving the Loop? ⬇️

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Looks like Sherwood Street is getting cycle hire stands 🐝🚲 #FallowfieldLoop

@floopwalker @wendy_bobs @SustransNorth @Sustrans Spotted last night: just passable but a bit of a hazard in the dark! Thanks got the heads up 👍

[FLOOPWALKER @floopwalker]

@wendy_bobs @TheFoFL @SustransNorth Just before ( if you're travelling west towards Chorlton) the Athol Road turnoff. Just after if your travelling East towards Abbey Hey / Gorton @Sustrans #Levenshulme #FallowfieldLoop #Gorton #Chorlton #Ladybarn

This is us!! Well, partly us. The "Manchester Cycleway" is part of the Fallowfield Loop and the Yellow Brick Road.

NB: additional works happening for a week FROM TOMORROW closing the loop between Errwood Rd and Slade Lane bridges for necessary tree works. Diversion on road.

[Manchester City Council @ManCityCouncil]

Work is ongoing to deliver much-needed improvements to the Manchester Cycleway.

The current work involves resurfacing and improved access points, as well as a localised lighting upgrade.

Read more about this work at https://t.co/NFhkjmaKY0

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Longford Road looking good!

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

No changes to Nelstrop Road North access, as already improved recently.

Longford Road West: existing rusted metalwork to be removed and replaced with appropriately spaced bollards. 29/n

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Any #GhostSigns on or near the #FallowfieldLoop?

[Friends Of The Fallowfield Loop @TheFoFL]

Nice pic of the new Bee Bollards at Crayfield here #FallowfieldLoop

Hopefully there's resurfacing of the path to follow

[Streets for People - Levenshulme and Burnage @s4plb]

Really good to have a more accessible entrance to the Fallowfield Loop at Crayfield Road.

To make it safe, however, Crayfield needs filtering, which would link the Floop to other filtered streets.

🚨 Advance warning 🚨

The #FallowfieldLoop between Slade Lane and Errwood Road will be closed for a week from the 6th of November for essential tree works. Diversion will be via Linden Park.

An ecologist has been involved in planning the project and will be with contractors on site.
