| It is a great pity that our Borough's processes led to the the Cycle Super Highway being cut cut back from its planned and publicised end at South Wimbledon Tube station. Because of this, Merton can only benefit from an amputated Cycle Super Highway, cut short at Colliers' Wood, and abandoning the circulation problems below the knee. This blunt surgery was done without even consulting anyone who rides a bicycle daily on Merton roads to live, to work, to learn . Why is it not essential that there is meaningful consultation with people who know what they are doing? It would save Merton and London local taxpayers a mint. Merton and GLA members and officers need to change their perceived mindset if they want to do anything more positive to grow cycling to match lovely soft warm words with a touch of reality. That would cut back on personal motoring costs, make living in Merton more enjoyable and reduce the bill for street maintenance. |
