HC Deb 09 December 1994 vol 251 c405W
Mr. French

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what proposals he has to increase the safety of cyclists.

Mr. Norris

As part of our efforts to achieve a one third reduction in road casualties by the year 2000 we will maintain our commitment to reduce cyclist casualties. Cyclist safety will be promoted through education and publicity measures, continued research projects, and the issue of technical advice to local highway authorities on the planning, design and construction of cycling facilities.
