Bristol Cycling Campaign’s petition to ask that the city sees more people cycling, more investment in cycling, and a comprehensive cycling network covering every road and street has now reached more than 3,500 signatures, meaning that it will be debated by the full council at City Hall.
The Bristol Cycling Manifesto hopes to offer independence, health and mobility for all, with every street in Bristol becoming a cycling street, linked by 200 miles of cycling freeways and quietways.
There are five actions to make this happen:
- Set a target to quadruple cycling to 20% of all travel by 2025
- Fix a plan to deliver a comprehensive cycling network by 2025
- Commit investment to deliver the plan at £16 per person each year
- Implement the plan through a multi-skilled team for action across all areas
- Engage an inspirational Cycling Commissioner to lead the transformation
