Cycle Highways? Cycle Super Highway

How about getting rid of all the stupid on-road parking on popular cycle routes? Make all those 'advisory' bike lanes enforceable and, shock horror, actually enforce them? It'd be nice if I only had to worry about the numptys driving alongside rather than the numptys swinging open doors as well.

Yes, yes & again yes.

I'm very torn by the whole thing: Money, facilities & priority to cyclists is great. More wobbly cyclists wibbling around slowing down my commute not great. Guess I'm just a nimby.

Even after the weekend's good weather you can see the increase in cyclists on the roads this week - I think summer is going to get very hectic. Mebbe need to find a quieter route.[/quote]

Leave early or late. If you are central-ish by 08:00 or after 09:30 it is never too bad. It's the 08:15-09:00 rush that is mad.

We are all nimbys at heart.
