Expert says Island needs better network plans
Would you ditch your car to take up walking and cycling to work? One expert says if the Department of Infrastructure ups its game, you're more likely to.
Cycling UK's campaigns and policy director, Roger Geffen MBE, says if the DoI invests in cycling network plans and communicates consistent design standards - people will be encouraged to make a practice of it.
He spoke at a Positive Action Group meeting last night (Mon) - adding that local authorities should be championing change with evolving roadworks.
The department has already begun work on an 'Active Travel' strategy.
Mr Geffen says there's no reason why people can't hit the roads now, though:
