Have they tried actually doing anything about it?
The extent of cycle infrastructure in this country is limited exclusively to painting a white line on the side of an already existing road. Whenever it gets complicated just give up and start again on the other side of the junction, hopefully the cyclists figure it out for themselves. And of course everyone knows that potholes only improve the cycling experience so no need to worry about them.
Or the opposite! They put bike lanes in that just exist to avoid roundabouts… That lose you the right of way!
Useless things. Some are just long enough to give you hope before they spit you back onto the road with no warning.
While successive governments chase the motorist vote and the media brand any efforts to mitigate the problems they cause as a “war on motorists” it’s going to stay shit.
They didn’t need to commission a report to find that out - they could just have asked me. And i can’t even ride a bike.
