Well, you know. This is a cycling forum so you're bound to see pro-cycling rhetoric here.
The comments on the "we support" petition itself for the most part seem quite well-balanced, between normal humans on foot with families, and cyclists, which is nice.
A lot of councils (including mine, also a Mini-Holland bid winner) are going to be looking to Waltham Forest to see how this trial works out. I'm very glad they're carrying it out - a lot of opponents are saying "well, do you have any evidence this will work?" and then getting upset when the council takes steps to gather data to find out if it will work or not. It's a shame.
