Cycling UK has followed Bikeability and Sustrans with a reaction to the second Cycling and Walking Investment Strategy (CWIS2), but cut a very different tone in the reaction to the contents.
Campaigns and Policy Director Roger Geffen MBE, never one sugarcoat a reaction, outlines his belief that there exists a “glaring mismatch between the increases in cycling and walking the Department for Transport (DfT) is aiming to achieve, and the funding available for doing so.”
In an analytical blog on the subject, Geffen dismantles what you may assume to be an increased funding pot (The figure of £3.784bn emerged in the CWIS2 document).
