Campaigners hit out at plans for non-protected cycle lanes on part of Kensington High Street Jeremy Vine says council “can shove this up their exhaust pipe” while London Cycling Campaign accuses borough of prioritising drivers cycling
that the plans conflict with guidance from the government, and that the Conservative-controlled council continued to prioritise motorists over active modes of travel and reducing reliance on motor vehicles.
“The approach that is now proposed is ‘advisory cycle lanes’ not physically protected cycle tracks – which goes against the government’s guidance on cycle safety and scheme design – and the schemes proposed still have big gaps and safety issues. “But the council itself has already delayed action here for decades and TfL and other councils in London have been able to deliver better schemes on similarly congested and contested roads in weeks or months,” he added.
West of Kensington High Street, the protected Cycleway 9 now enables cyclists to ride safely from Olympia through Hammersmith and along King Street and Chiswick High Road to the northern end of Kew Bridge, and works are currently under way to extend it further to Brentford.
