MailOnline claims Birmingham has waged 'war on motorists' as council unveils plans for 124 miles of cycling and walking routes to put the city on the 'same level for cycle friendliness as Copenhagen', with as much green space as Vienna... cycling
On Friday, Birmingham City Council unveiled its plan to make the city a"leading international location", with active travel networks"on the same level" as Copenhagen and spaces"as green as Vienna".
The route map for the plans will be revealed tomorrow, with the Labour-run council hoping it can double green space in a bid to"tackle the climate emergency on the city's route to net zero carbon emissions"."The plan we are going to be launching tomorrow is a route map to a greener Birmingham, creating more jobs, better transport options and having higher quality, more energy efficient new homes," Cllr Ward said.
Stating that the future city will be less reliant on the ring road, he added that it will be"a very different concept in the future" and said there is an"opportunity to turn some of that ring road into green space". The council estimates the work has potential to create 74,000 new jobs as well as 35,000 new homes,"creating vibrant new neighbourhoods" and"doubling in population density [...] but not at the expense of green open space".
