CYCLING LANDSCAPES
Why Cycling?
Parliament has endorsed targets for 10% of all journeys being made by bike by 2025, with significant new funding being made available to support cycling in the UK. The latest figures show that for all the short journeys made by car – 11 per cent are under a mile, 29 per cent are between one and two miles, and the remainder 60 per cent are between two and five miles.
While no one can argue with the social, economic and health benefits that cycling offers, there is no doubt that the environmental infrastructure of Britain’s public realm was never developed with the cyclist in mind, and at best it has only been an afterthought.
The Aim
In order to attract more people onto their bikes, a safe network of cycle routes blended seamlessly with other transport modes needs to be planned and created.
Putting cycling at the heart of transport policy in both urban and rural areas and in the minds of vehicle drivers will assist both the Government and road users.
Putting cycling at the heart of transport policy will assist both the Government and road users in:
- Saving money per person in transport and fuel expenses
- Tackling health issues, mostly obesity from an early age
- Reducing greenhouse gas emissions
- Reducing vehicle congestion
- Creating a better environment
