Occasionally shilling for Big Cycling and fond of running, which is a big part of my next project -The 7.5 min city
Traveling at 50kph between stops vs at 30kph usually results in no time savings but it does make the road dangerous for other users especially vulnerable road users.
If there is no benefit to drivers why is it important to maintain a status quo ?

It's not perfect but it's absolutely fine.. the only slightly annoying thing is when you go to return and there is someone there with three sacks of returns😂🙈

The SUV pickup he was driving when broke the red light was travelling at around 35-37kph.
Before you even consider that the driver broke a red light and that these trucks have hideous blind spots -The vehicle's size and mass make it lethal to pedestrians and cyclists even at slower speeds

Also walking and cycling is a form of transportation and not just a recreational activity.

The heat logs briquettes - they are some sort of compressed sawdust/wood combination.

People who bought turf can still burn briquettes and store them in their shed as would have done eith turf. Briquettes burn hotter and produce less smoke.
And people who cut their own turf are still allowed to-only commerical turf cutting has been stopped

I take your point. However, the eMPTy CyclELANE arguers are mainly railing against the reallocation of space from private car use to a cyclelane or footpath.

They don't really care about the existence of empty remote roads.

It's worth mentioning that
the quality of the infrastructure can be as much of a determining factor as people's physical abilities.
And arguments against allocating adequate space and funds to high quality infrastructure impacts more acutely on those can't use bad infrastructure.
