It's good stuff - the Government gets it, now why can't they get Councils (highways and planning departments) and developers to actually deliver these important road safety fixes?

'Critical safety issues for walking, wheeling and cycling'

'The recommendation to focus on identifying and removing critical issues was introduced nationally in Local Transport Note 1/20 for cycling and regionally through approaches such as London’s Healthy Streets check and Greater Manchester’s Streets for All check.'

@NorwichCycling it's effectively not even 2m wide because #LTN120 says to take off sides as a safety margin, so lose 0.5m for the kerb drop and it looks like 0.2m for that lamppost and hedge that are too close to the track, so effective width is 1.3m? 4 lanes for cars, not even half a lane for #activeTravel. Yet again #NCC #fail to implement their own policies and offer no #space4cycling
