Crap Cycle Lanes of Croydon

Cycle use is rising in London following the introduction of the congestion charge, not because of the London Cycle Network. This blog is a commentary on the 45 miles of substandard cycle facilities in Croydon.

Gaps in Croydon's Cycle Network

The map to the left shows Croydon’s cycle network. Croydon has more connections north-south but there are major gaps in the north-west and eastwest directions. The proposed cycle routes do not fill these gaps. The proposed off-road cycle route south of the town centre will create a ring around it improving the connection to the east
but further links need to be proposed towards the west.

Good to see parts of Sutton are being claimed under the Croydon flag...
Most of the bits to the west are just problems with inter-borough linkages.
