Just received this email from Manchester Council's Cycle Forum. Nothing like giving plenty of notice...
From: cycle.forum@manchester.gov.uk
Dear All,
The consultation for the proposed cycle link from the Mancunian Way Toucan Crossing via Medlock Street to the City Centre is available on the Council website.
Closing date for comments is the 5th October.

Yet another sticking plaster measure from Manchester City Council. This time it's turning a short section of pavement into a shared use cycleway.
