| Yet more completely carbrained fact-free anecdotes Francis. The largest increase in numbers on C9 since 2019 have been at peak commuting times. Clearly these are people who prefer cycling separated from traffic. The people who were happy commuting with traffic would have been doing it anyway prior to C9 being built. A factor behind increase in numbers using C9 is increased numbers commuting during winter and adjacent months indicating more people commuting by bike year-round. This is driving up overall annual averages. I don't recall seeing many delivery riders at 8am in the morning when C9 is at its busiest. People commute using hire bikes too so I don't see why you are dismissing this. It a classic car brained objection that if cycling infrastructure isn't everywhere, it shouldn't be anywhere. Your perfunctory search for casualty data is typical. I'm not your nanny, spoon feeding you information. When you invariably can't be bothered finding out facts it give me some minor amusement to point out your car brained statements. Your use of ChatGPT is a good demonstration of garbage in, garbage out. Police record casualties in a statistical record called STATS19. Source data is all available on DfT website plus I'm aware of at least 3 different websites, one run by TfL that map the data. The string of casualties along Hammersmith Bridge and approach roads prior to 2019 gives a lie to you claim this was "least challenging". |
