Ian Stotesbury, who is responsible for sustainability and transport in Watford, said: “The Green Ring will bring about fantastic new cycling infrastructure across our town and marks the beginning of our wider plans to deliver a range of improvements to tackle congestion.
“The Green Ring will help lots of residents in many ways - to commute across the town or to visit some of the beautiful woodland and rivers our town has to offer.”
