MEMBERS of an environmental taskforce will take a bus trip around east Cleveland today to help them plan a green vision for the area.
Councillors and members of the Redcar and Cleveland Partnership's Environment Group, including representatives of the Tees Valley Wildlife Trust, The Tees Forest and Cleveland Potash, will make four stops on the bus tour around the area.
The first venue is Redcar's Coatham Marshes, a nature reserve managed by the Wildlife Trust.
The bus will then go to woodland at Foxrush Farm, Dormanstown, and to Green Gates Primary School, Redcar to look at recent ground improvements.
The final stop will be in Hinderwell, to see how the partnership's involvement with the North York Moors National Park is progressing.
The taskforce will then take part in a discussion forum at the James Finegan Hall, in Eston, designed to develop ideas for a joint Council-Partnership strategy to be published next year.
The Partnership's Environment Priority Group chairman, Glenn McGill, said: "We want to show the initiatives and exciting work already taking place in and around the borough as a starting point to co-ordinate and develop more of these schemes."
