ignoring one hazard because there is another, larger one makes no sense.
In world with limited resources it kind of does, If one hazard is responsible for one death a year, and the other hundreds.
Cyclists don’t cause us, as an organisation, problems, that’s because they aren’t causing our communities problems, they aren’t killing nearly 100 people on our regions roads as mechanically propelled vehicles currently do.
Those pedestrianised areas would help with that.
In any case, ignoring one hazard because there is another, larger one makes no sense. Tackle both.
