For taxpayers, every piece of cycling infrastructure is a gift that keeps on giving.
An asset that returns annual savings in congestion, pollution, maintenance, safety and healthcare over its lifetime.
Stop asking whether your city can afford to invest in cycling. Ask whether it can afford not to.

Cardiff is the first UK city to approve higher parking charges for larger, more-polluting vehicles like SUVs.
SUVs make up over 60% of new cars sold in the UK, but are 14% more likely to kill a pedestrian or cyclist and 77% more likely to kill a child.

It was great to meet Paul Bristow, Mayor of the Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Combined Authority, with colleagues from @cambstravelall.
Cycling topics included rural routes (such as a Guyhirn to March link in Fenland), cycling in new developments & making the maximum impact on the region's health 🚲
