London Cycling Guides Revision

Make sure you are using the latest edition for corrections / amendments, please, though you may like to use the grid from the former versions for ease of reference.

From Dr N Veena – Transport for London Cycle Maps Project (slightly edited)

The new 3rd edition of the London Cycling Guides produced by TfL in partnership with the London Cycling Campaign has been a very successful cycling product and has generated a much increased demand since its launch in August 2007. The underlying street survey information has also now been used to update cycling Journey Planner on the TfL website.

CWA is keen to keep this product as accurate as possible to maximise its usefulness to new and continuing cyclists in London and therefore plan to produce an updated version in time for Spring 2009.

Therefore, we are asking you to have a look at the current Guides and TfL Journey Planner and send us details of any errors or omissions in the recommended routes. If you are responsible or aware of road schemes which have been improved for cyclists since the last survey in December 2006, please let us know so we can consider including them in our recommended routes. We are particularly keen to ensure that all the routes we are recommending are legal for cycling, so that we can fulfil our duty of care obligations. You can feedback to us on the Guides by:

(a) Completing the error form on Journey Planner https://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/roadusers/cycling/cycleroutes/Contact.aspx

(b) Marking the location and nature of the suggestion/error on the relevant map and sending this to veena.natarajan@tfl.gov.uk for ongoing collation

(c) Emailing a summary of the suggestion/error to veena.natarajan@tfl.gov.uk for ongoing collation.

Please forward this to anyone would be interested in inputting to the update and send your comments via the above methods preferably by 30th June 2008 and if not by 12 July.
Thank you for your assistance with this project.
