Anti-cycle lane campaigners conga along seafront to protest new “Mickey Mouse” road layout Opponents of Clevedon’s active travel scheme also claimed that “high speed lycra clad cyclists” pose a danger to children on the town’s new bike lane cycling
, and “killing Christmas trade” – despite most traders in the town declaring their support for the new active travel measures.
“A wavy line provides uncertainty to the driver and is proven to help reduce unwanted parking,” a council spokespersonNevertheless, the unusual design has prompted the opponents of the scheme to renew their campaign with a fresh wave of protests and petitions claiming the layout will make the seafront more dangerous and harm businesses.
“Both accidents involved injury to non-motorised road users , and the changes are likely to increase the potential risk for similar accidents of both natures.” “We protested the changes on Sunday in the hope that North Somerset will at last listen and talk to us about our safety, parking concerns and the detrimental effect on trade for the local businesses,” Hawkins continued.
“We do not have major road safety issues on Clevedon seafront at present, despite it being a Victorian amenity. We will, however, have safety issues in the future as a result of the incompetent plans of the current North Somerset Council.
