Another daft comment.There are so many cycle lanes were I live, roads narrowed and yet not on cyclist in sight. For me it is all a waste of money. The uk does not have the weather for cycling, people can jump in their cars and keep warm on their way to work. A better way to go would be public transport.
We have perfectly good weather for cycling or walking. It's only those who drive everywhere to the detriment of wider society that hold such views.
Active travel should be encouraged & public transport should be invested in. The later may lead to bus lanes though, this could cause a few drivers to clutch their pearls.
I live in the UK & cycle around 8000 miles a year.
