The Times Cycling Campaign

I don't believe that this call for safe car free routes for cycling is that helpful in the round. The more we get London roads even fuller of cyclists the better and safer for everyone. Both doesn't work. You build these car free routes ( where in london I've no idea ) then drivers will be less tolerant of riders on the roads. And the roads as they are get us from a to b quickly and efficiently.
To be honest, I have felt quite torn over this issue. I represent a group of 800+ individuals many of whom have strong, equally informed but often differing opinions and who have been lobbying for decades to make the roads safer, using all manner of approaches and arguments.

However, we all share the same end goals including safer cycling conditions and fewer casualties.

Of course "the more we get London roads even fuller of cyclists the better and safer for everyone" but perhaps the best way to get these potential cyclists to cycle is to improve infrastructure.
