A1000 temporary segregated cycle lane

We the undersigned petition the council to dismantle these segregated lanes now

Most of the time the segregated lanes are empty. The 50% reduction in vehicle capacity has caused lengthy traffic jams. We doubt whether any Project Appraisal was done using Dept of Transport Green Book methodology. The benefits to cyclists and bus passengers are hugely outweighed by the time cost to other road users resulting from the jams, plus the extra pollution. The cheme has failed as there is insufficient space for segregated lanes and they are empty most of the time.

This ePetition ran from 05/12/2020 to 16/01/2021 and has now finished.
