In the UK, 66% of car journeys are Less than five miles and fewer than 20% of trips by all modes are over 10 miles in length. There is therefore huge potential for more journeys to be made on foot or by bicycle. In fact, 25% of journeys under two miles are already done by walking. However, many transport professionals can go through their entire career without ever being asked to design facilities for walking and cycling. The standard road profiles in the Design Manual for Roads and Bridges do not even not include any space for cycle lanes or tracks. |
