It turns out it was all a waste of paper and a waste of my time taking part in the consultation. The council now say regarding the Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council Cycling Strategy: "Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council, as a district local authority, has no responsibility for cycling strategy and, therefore, does not hold the information requested."

#Basingstoke Borough Council's 2016 Cycling Strategy had a target to double cycle trips to work over 10 years. I should probably contact them to ask how that's going given that between it and the subsequent LCWIP, nothing really has changed in terms of producing joined-up high quality cycling infrastructure.

From the #BikeIsBest newsletter:-
"It was frustrating this week to see 11 new cycling offences proposed by the government (out of 13 new traffic offences)"
"With someone killed or seriously injured in motor traffic collisions every 20 minutes in England the legal system, police resourcing, public education and enforcement are woefully inadequate."https://road.cc/content/news/10-new-cycling-offences-be-introduced-312337

'Cycle Winchester announces postponement of mass cycle ride'
'“Attendance at the 2023 ride outstripped our wildest expectations, with more than 400 riders filling the streets of Winchester.
“Unfortunately we are victims of our own success; the massive turnout raised questions about alternative marshalling arrangements."'

'LTNs reduce crime say police'
Met Police: '"the MPS is concerned with the plans to remove these measures both in terms of a potential increase in crime, specifically ASB related, and also increasing road danger."'

Having ridden my #bike today through floods (and diverting because some of the flooded roads are too deep) and big potholes, it's clear to me that #HampshireCountyCouncil do not consider #road #maintenance or #drainage to be a priority, and when they do, they only do half a job that falls apart 6 months later. Clearly taxation for local #Government is broken if they can't get enough money from the enormous houses.
