The Sutton project

With a limited budget of £5 million, equivalent to half a cycling lane in London. The Sutton project has seen a 75% increase in cyclists and 13% increase in bus use and a 2% decrease in car use. These are modal shifts that transport planners in London can only dream about.

Sad news

2009 19 cyclists killed
2008 22 cyclists killed
2007 22 cyclists killed

Please don’t let Ben’s sad departure become just another statistic number in Singapore’s road kill.

Safety for all on the road, especially for pedestrian and cyclist, should be considered very carefully when LTA designing our roads and streets.
