65% of people wish to see segregated cycling routes on roads – Cycle Industry News
Mark Sutton 5 October 2022
A study of a pool of 26,000 people has discovered that around 65% of people wish to see cycling routes in towns and cities that are physically separated from motor traffic, thus promoting bike riding as a safe transport form for all.
The Sustrans Walking and Cycling Index research discovered that the importance of such an option was particularly sought after among those on low incomes who may disproportionately be feeling the pinch of the cost of living crisis, plus have less access to cars. 58% of low income respondents were in favour of protected cycling routes being laid in their locality.
