New Cycleway on A2070?


New Cycleway


A2070 Badmünstereifel Road, Ashford.  "END OF CYCLE-ROUTE"

It is appreciated that work here may not be completed, but:-

This development will be watched with interest. This is a busy dual-carriageway, with a normal maximum speed (for a dual carriageway) that would be restricted to 70 mph.   In its present state (03.09.14) it does not satisfy the standards for it to be suitable for: commuters, children, families, shoppers, or leisure cyclists; nor wheelchairs, and mobility shoppers.
Perhaps it will eventually morph into a Toucan-Crossing, but if it does, the acute angle of approach is somewhat unusual, and I would consider to be unsuitable.




The above listed people can not be 'cast' out into the paths of fast moving and busy traffic.
