Great to hear from @Chris_Boardman - he shared that an @activetraveleng study found schemes that met standards got ‘20-60% more uptake & halved deaths’ - whereas ‘white lines’ alone increased deaths by 10% ie ‘worse than doing nothing’

@activetravelcaf Though I do feel it's only a matter of time before someone will show up to one of my talks, or possibly buy the book, only to be disappointed not to learn about patching road defects. Hopefully they'll come for the engineering advice, and stay for the cycling misadventures.
