The Northern Ireland Executive is planning to develop cycling masterplans for urban areas, starting with Belfast.
The masterplans will identify proposals for new infrastructure as well as area-specific behaviour change initiatives.
The Executive’s new draft cycling strategy pledges more cycle facilities on main arterial routes; ‘quiet routes’ to promote cycling on less trafficked routes in urban areas; and ‘greenway’ off-road routes. New cycling design guidance is also promised.
The NI Executive is taking a cautious approach to signed-only 20mph limits. Five pilots are being implemented before a decision is made on wider roll-out.
Consultation closes on 21 November.
