According to Ealing Council the cost of building fully segregated cycle paths such as the one on Boston Manor Road is around £500,000 per kilometre. That’s where LBE is spending its transport budget this year, meanwhile happily watching Road and pavement surfaces deteriorate beyond use. Meanwhile the ‘secure’ bike hangars, just the £5,000 a pop, are anything but secure as a number of cyclists have discovered this year when they find their expensive bikes have disappeared overnight. And I don’t know why they aren’t properly illuminated or even adorned with reflective stickers. Even a skip has to be made obvious to Road users, but these hangars seem to have to blend in. |
