What does "brought up to standards" mean? Which standards are they?
They're probably talking about width, the trail is currently 2.6 meters wide, which is far too narrow for the traffic it carries. The standards say it should be a minimum of 3 meters wide, (still far too narrow for the traffic volumes), and it is planned last I heard, to be widened to 3.6 meters, which is better, but probably still too narrow for current volumes, let alone future growth (remember, this is a 20 year project).
Where can we find the data for the IHT traffic volumes?
