Space, speed, volume and continuity: Four key elements need to be addressed if we are really to get Britain cycling

摘要

In some situations, it's simply not practical to provide dedicated space for cycling. But cities with high cycling levels don't just throw up their hands in despair and let cyclists ride on the footways. In last year's Get Britain Cycling, I wrote about the importance of UK practitioners getting out more, and I'm sure you'd like to know that I practice what I preach. In the past year, our whole (small) company spent a total of ten days on study tours of Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Utrecht, Bristol, Coventry, Poynton (Cheshire), and parts of London, meeting local practitioners wherever possible. This, in my view, is real continuing professional development.
