    second one is Hembrows deconstruction of another release today,
    hes pretty good- accurate assessment of designs, except for the fact he fucked off to Hollland years ago so dosent DEAL with the roads like we do every day and speaks from Dutch perspective, which is alright if you live in Holland.
    see what you think,

    Good Links tears in rain.
    I agree the 1st one is fairly good however the point:

    This framework is needed where there are significant volumes or speeds of traffic. The main primary roads through an area will need proper cycle infrastructure, whereas local residential streets should be designed so that people can mix safely.

    The question, to mix or to separate is not as simple as this. Just like local residential streets should be designed "so people can mix safely", In many cases this should be applied to high streets/shopping streets even it it is along a 'main primary road'. It is more pleasnt for all modes when they are able to mix safely. (Well perhaps not better for drivers since doing so should involve reducing space for driving and lowering speeds) .
