Sadly, I find the outcome of the process completely unsurprising😔 On-street car storage wins over community safety again.
I have told this story before, but bringing it here. This street has footway parking on both sides which gives 1 metre of walking space beyond the lines. But, if drivers obey the markings, you can't get a car up the middle. Because residents kept getting tickets, I was asked to look at it. 1/n

There are elaborate systems in place for tackling death and injury in the air, rail and maritime sectors, but not for roads.
The last Government promised a Road Safety Investigation Branch, then dropped it. The new Gov’t says they have no plans for one.

It is quite incredible that a sustainable transport scheme, consulted on several times, can be taken to the Highest Court in the land because some residents didn't want a cycle lane in front of their house.
I am glad that common sense prevailed today.
