Why would people cycle anywhere there are cars? Ban bikes from one road it's easier to ban them from others. Eventually all you're left with is shitty B roads and sparse segregated paths or mountain biking and no one wants that.
I often choose dual carriageways to ride on because they're the quickest most direct way to get from town A to town B. Why should I now be banned from using the roads my taxes pay for? It's bad enough I'm not allowed to use Motorways - they'd really help my travel times.
"In the interests of road safety... " they're banning bikes. That's arse about.
