Warwickshire County council seems to be going ahead with widening the footway on the west side of the A429 and re-designating it as a shared pedestrian/cyclist track.
Coventry Council is about to begin a public consultation about constructing an off-carriageway cycle track on west side of A429 between the Warwickshire border and Gibbet Hill Road, separate from the footway.
A study of A&E admissions in Southampton revealed that a third of cyclists presenting at A&E had crashed going onto or off from the footway or an off-road path, at official and unofficial access points.
Anyone who might use such a facility willing to check the designs?
