K&C residents want cycle tracks back says independent survey – London Cycling Campaign
An independent survey of 1,000 residents of the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea (RBKC), carried out for Transport for London (TfL) shows the majority support reinstating the Kensington High Street cycle tracks, undermining a key reason given by the council for removing them (before they’d even been fully installed).
In December, RBKC removed the protected bike lanes that had been in for just seven weeks, citing opposition from businesses and residents. Yet the survey by market research company ICM Unlimited found 56 per cent of surveyed residents back the tracks, compared to just 30 per cent who oppose them.
