Huge disparity between walking and cycling infrastructure

We would like the County Council and the District and Borough Councils to realise that the greatest progress towards reducing car use/dependency will come from a huge increase in cycling centric infrastructure.

Progress:

  • No progress

In West Sussex, people on foot have 8036 kms where they are segregated from motorised traffic. People on cycles have 1398 kms where they are segregated from motorised traffic.  See the facts on the attached table.   Some at WSCC believe that walking is 'more important' than cycling and that there needs to be a walking forum.   Modal shift will not come from even a doubling of walking infrastructure; whereas 8036 kms of good quality cycling infrastructure would work wonders.
