Eastbourne Cycling improvements online survey, have your say

Hi, East Sussex County Council and Eastbourne Borough Council would like to hear your views on their proposals to introduce a number of new routes for cyclists (us). This can only be a good thing  :)
Please have a look-

The usual rubbish aimed at clearing pesky cyclists out of the way of proper traffic:
  • Mostly consisting of letting cyclist ride on the pavement.
  • Some ludicrously dangerous orbital cycle lanes round roundabouts.
  • Use of zebra (ie pedestrian only) crossings on a cycle route.
  • Use of a staggered toucan crossing (ie push button - wait 5 minutes - and try to negotiate a tight zig-zag cattle pen - push another buton...)
  • Marking of parking bays on the pavement.
Nothing that Jeremy Clarkson wouldn't approve whole heartedly.
