Why allow a clean, quiet mode of transport in a public park when you can fill the green space with motors that belch greenhouse gases?<br /><br />And we should defo focus on 'driving infrastructure', especially as motoring is the cleanest way to travel, and the supply of fuel for these vehicles will never, ever run out.<br /><br />Genius!maliknanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05236429916750164313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-31111909808149099752010-02-26T13:16:49.050+00:002010-02-26T13:16:49.050+00:00"That is, they have got these people to sell ..."That is, they have got these people to sell out the entire notion of park and replace it with parking."<br /><br />I never saw the link between those two words before. Thanks for enlightening me, BT. So, to solve Bristol's parking problems we just need to convert all parks into parking lots. Brilliant.

But before we get the cycling infrastruct...Maybe. <br /><br />But before we get the cycling infrastructure we need to complete the driving infrastructure (obviously). <br /><br />Good to see the Zoo got its permission to park cars on on the Downs, and nice to know there won't be any conflict with cyclists, because they are not allowed to cycle on them.<br /><br />Joined-up thinking is apparently still very much alive and well.Quercushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988483668908744914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7803191245171285795.post-75455990967691248072010-02-25T15:28:29.734+00:002010-02-25T15:28:29.734+00:00It's not that complicated: If better cycling i...It's not that complicated: If better cycling infrastructure was in place, more people would cycle.<br /><br />There's a ton of evidence out there to support that. <br /><br />But these sorts of people always look at it in a backwards way: Not that many people cycle, so don't bother to provide any infrastructure for them at all.<br /><br />That's why we get the token two bike stands (if that) in so many places, while there are parking places as far as the eye can see. When you consider the myriad of benefits that being a cycling society provides, it all seems quite mad!maliknanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05236429916750164313noreply@blogger.com
