'NICE Guidelines' could benefit cycling

Posted on
  • Some good news... the National Institute for Clinical Excellance, who are charged with determining which treatments you can have on the NHS, has published some guidelines aimed at local authorities and the Dept. of Transport about physical activity and environment. They make a bunch of recommendations including these which i really liked:

    • Ensure pedestrians, cyclists and users of other modes of transport that involve physical activity are given the highest priority when developing or maintaining streets and roads.
    – re-allocate road space to support physically active modes of transport
    – restrict motor vehicle access (for example, by closing or narrowing roads to reduce capacity)

    The rest of it is here... http://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/index.jsp?action=byID&o=11917

    Obviously I'm not holding my breath but it's gotta be all to the good.

  • Bet someone on NICE's is a cyclist OR WHAT
