The average daily traffic count of the road the Bridge to Everywhere crosses was 128,263 (2013 figures). </p> <p>Okay, I know it's the M8 so hardly a fair comparison, but articles like this really annoy me. "Boosted" doesn't mean increased from almost nothing to pretty much nothing.</p> <p>Traffic count details: <a href="http://www.dft.gov.uk/traffic-counts/cp.php?la=Glasgow+City" rel="nofollow">http://www.dft.gov.uk/traffic-counts/cp.php?la=Glasgow+City</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14287#post-179193 Wed, 28 Jan 2015 13:37:16 +0000 SRD 179193@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Anderston footbridge</p> <p>"cyclists here today: 38"<br /> "cyclists this year: 1934" </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14287#post-179191 Wed, 28 Jan 2015 13:34:19 +0000 SRD 179191@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The GCPH study found that nearly half of participants surveyed (45 per cent) had changed their journey to take advantage of the new route, while almost one in four had switched from driving or taking public transport to make their journey to and from town by bike or on foot after the new route opened.</p> <p>Participants reported faster, cheaper and less stressful journeys as a result, and cyclists in particular welcomed the raised kerb feature of the route which separated them from traffic.<br /> ....</p> <p>"It is interesting that there is support for further development of this type of safe infrastructure in other parts of Glasgow and that people would like to see more routes in order to create a more cohesive active travel network across the city. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=14287#post-179173 Wed, 28 Jan 2015 12:07:28 +0000 chdot 179173@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://www.heraldscotland.com/mobile/news/transport/walking-and-cycling-boosted-by-bridge-to-nowhere-path.117093906" rel="nofollow">http://www.heraldscotland.com/mobile/news/transport/walking-and-cycling-boosted-by-bridge-to-nowhere-path.117093906</a></p> <p>Mostly behind paywall - can't find another version. </p>
