For instance, a cycle lane can improve a planned cycle journey, but not if the cycle lane is too narrow. On the other hand if the cycle lane is wide and has a good surface, it can be better than a shorter route on a busier road.</p> <p>"</p> <p><a href="http://www.cyclestreets.net/blog/2011/07/20/detailed-cycling-data-dft" rel="nofollow">http://www.cyclestreets.net/blog/2011/07/20/detailed-cycling-data-dft</a></p> <p>Data is for England but this development, where data collected for another project, will be publicly available, is important for the improvement of cycle journey planning. </p> <p>Directly related to this is further programming and development work by CycleStreets is very valuable. </p>
