3405 Louise HunterI fully support all items above.
3406 Martin TregoningAll too often, especially in Auckland, cyclists are not given enough room when on the road. Cars DONT look out for them and the number of accidents , whether serious or not, is on the rise. Having been a victim myself, I know first how it can affect your mind set when trying to get back on the bike. Other parts of the country, Christchurch for example, have a wide road policy where a cyclist can feel relatively safe whist out there amongst the traffic. Its about time that Auckland cyclists took back the roads.
3407 Jill SummerPlease do this. I t will cover healt, environment and conservation problems as well ans letting us ride a bike in safety.

3416 AnonymousWe need to take initiatives to encourage alternative modes of transport now and not be running to catch up with what was never done. Future generations will thanks us for our long view.
3417 Tim ChapmanI live in Hamilton, and although the council has many many roads which are wide enough for cyclists, I have had a number of close calls with cars who cut corners and make use of the cyclist lane. I think it is about time we make sure that drivers are aware about the need for the safety of those who choose to ride bikes around.

3425 Trevor Crawford-Cycling doesn't use oil -ACC has an interest in Cyclist safety -Ministry of Health has an interest in health benefits of cycling Why wouldn't funding increase?

3427 Ros GouldingLink up Walking cycle ways so they are user friendly and then cyclists have an off road route to use which is better for all. Wellington and Auckland could easily have walking and cycle links between existing parks and green space. Central government needs to encourage local councils or Transit to maintain walkways and cycleways off main high ways between small settlements. Eg lake Hawea to Wanaka or Arrowtown to Queenstown. Riding on a road where the speed limit is 100Km is no fun.

3432 NickCycling not only needs to become a lot safer but people need to feel safe. I'd like to see families out on a ride together but that is not something I see when I'm out and about.. When more people are cycling there are benefits for everyone - health & fitness, lower traffic, less carbon emissions, etc.
