UK Government tries to expand cycling without spending money ( they got one out of two things right )

- 'The Government's vision is that walking and cycling become the natural
- choices for shorter journeys - or as part of a longer journey- regardless of
- age, gender, fitness level or income we have set out our ambition for cycling and walking up until 2025:'
This is the part I like
- 'To double cycling, where cycling activity is measured as the
- estimated total number of bicycle stages made each year, from 0.8
- billion stages in 2013 to 1.6 billion stages4;'
While most of this money is going to be spent on small improvements in at-grade road facilities and much more money for cycling cheerleaders it's still good to see the ambition.
