It was implemented in December 2020 so has been there for almost 5 years & was there before C9 at Hammersmith gyratory was implemented. Hounslow contractors also implemented a section of C9 in H&F as they had the equipment and people on-site already so was easier than H&F contracting separately.

4/ The figures show #IfYouBuildItTheyWillCome - let's have even more safe bike lanes in @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social and beyond @katherinedunne.bsky.social @shansview.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk

3/ There were more people on bikes than cars during the morning peak on June 25 weekdays. The overall daily average was 37% cyclists, so more than 1 cyclist for every 2 cars. @katherinedunne.bsky.social @shansview.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social

2/ Numbers cycling on Chiswick High Rd exceeded 5,000 in a single day during the September tube strike. @katherinedunne.bsky.social @shansview.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk @hounslowcouncil.bsky.social

The reduction in casualties isn't surprising. Other locations where road space has been reallocated to protected cycle lanes have also shown safety improvements as it reduces exposure to the biggest danger - motor vehicles

Numbers of cyclists have increased almost 60% since 2019 so this represents a significant reduction in casualty rate. In 2024 there were no recorded pedestrian casualties as a result of collisions with cyclists.

We will send on to Sainsbury’s (this is King St Hammersmith rather than Chiswick High Rd just to make sure they know the location)
