We’ve outlined plans for over 75 miles of segregated cycling and walking routes, plus 1,400 new crossings that will connect every community in Greater Manchester</p> <p>“</p> <p><a href="https://assets.ctfassets.net/nv7y93idf4jq/6J11U1IT8kAq2oCISoEGYy/ae9e07dd0974abcfdb3434cdff46ab5b/Beelines.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://assets.ctfassets.net/nv7y93idf4jq/6J11U1IT8kAq2oCISoEGYy/ae9e07dd0974abcfdb3434cdff46ab5b/Beelines.pdf</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18461#post-269865 Sat, 16 Dec 2017 10:52:31 +0000 chdot 269865@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>“If it doesn’t work we’ll remove it policy to help buisinesses transition.”</p> <p>Very New York.</p> <p>Problem is, *we are told* nothing much can be done in Ed/U.K. without tortuous TRO processes.</p> <p>“He doesn’t need the job, and will walk if he perceives his role to be a waste of time.”</p> <p>Hope he doesn’t have to, but good attitude/position to be in. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18461#post-269862 Sat, 16 Dec 2017 10:05:58 +0000 Baldcyclist 269862@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Spokesman cycling round table podcast, if not got iTunes, it is available elsewhere with a google search.</p> <p>Boardman talking a little bit about his vision for Manchester, some interesting points:<br /> 1. Lots of infrastructure<br /> 2. Not fair to expect motorists to change until infra is in place.<br /> 3. In favour of temporary measures to reassure Buisiness. If it doesn’t work we’ll remove it policy to help buisinesses transition.<br /> 4. He doesn’t need the job, and will walk if he perceives his role to be a waste of time.</p> <p><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-spokesmen-cycling-roundtable-podcast/id184376746?mt=2&amp;i=1000397246121" rel="nofollow">https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-spokesmen-cycling-roundtable-podcast/id184376746?mt=2&amp;i=1000397246121</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=18461#post-269836 Fri, 15 Dec 2017 20:32:55 +0000 chdot 269836@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>“</p> <p>We must :</p> <p>2</p> <p>Establish a ring-fenced, 10 year, £1.5 billion infrastructure fund, starting with a short term GM Mayor’s Active Streets Fund to kick-start delivery for walking and cycling.
