The routes highlighted in green will be the main cycling routes through the city, and the purple routes will make up the other parts of the network.<\/figcaption><\/figure><br \/>\nAN AMBITIOUS plan to turn Cardiff into one of the UK\u2019s most cycle-friendly cities over the next 10 years has been unveiled by Cardiff Council.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Cardiff Cycling Strategy aims to ease road congestion by getting half of all the city\u2019s commuters cycling, walking or using public transport to travel to work by 2026.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The cycle strategy proposes a linked cycle-lane network across the city, with two major cycling routes running through the city: one from north to south, the other from east to west, joining together cycle routes throughout the city.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The north-south route would run from Cardiff Bay in the south, through the city centre, passing Cardiff University campus and turning north-east towards the Heath.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The east-west route would run from St Mellon&#8217;s Business Park in the east along Newport Road, run through the city centre, and turn north-west towards Cardiff Metropolitan University\u2019s campus.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There are also proposals to link these main cycling thoroughfares to new housing developments that are part of the council\u2019s Local Development Plan.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Other routes have been proposed which criss-cross the districts of the city and link to the main cycle routes.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">About 64,000 of Cardiff&#8217;s daily commuter population of 80,000 travel into the city by car.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But cycling is on the rise, with 9.4 per cent of commuters said\u00a0to have made their daily journey to work by bike in 2015, up from 4.3 per cent in 2005.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The city is the fastest growing in the UK, with an expected population rise just under 80,000 between 2006 and 2026 and 40,000 or more jobs to be generated.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The cycle strategy would help the city cope with this massive influx of new workers and residents.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A major innovation of the strategy is to create segregated cycle paths along the main routes, to make would-be cyclists feel safer.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cardiff council claims in the strategy that 28 per cent of Cardiff residents do not cycle but would like to if there were improved conditions.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Councillor Ramesh Patel, cabinet member for Transport, Planning and Sustainability said: \u201cFrom public consultation there is evidence that people are keen to use other means of transport instead of cars.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cAbout 52 per cent of trips within Cardiff are less than a few miles, and if you go by bike it will take less than a few minutes, so why should you not?\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Coun Patel has stressed the gradual nature of change the strategy hopes to encourage, citing similar changes that have taken place in other cities like Copenhagen.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He said: \u201cWhat you have got to remember is this is not going to happen overnight. This is why we need a 10-year plan.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The plan has been met with a positive reaction from Cardiff\u2019s cycling community.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Writing in a blog post, Gavin Lewis of the campaign group Cardiff Cycle City said: \u201cWe must admit to being cautiously optimistic.<\/span><br \/>\n\u201cOn the face of it the strategy is saying the right things. It has ticked off a number of items on the wish list and gives us cause for optimism.\u201d<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">He added: \u201cThere are council elections next year and a lot can change with a new crop of councillors steering the ship. In an ideal world the new councillors will push ahead at a faster rate with these plans, but it could also conceivably go the other way.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When questioned how local elections in May might affect the future of the strategy Coun Patel said: \u201cWe are the administration and we have a focus on what we are delivering, and as far as we are concerned we will win the election in May. When we do, we will be taking this vision to the people of the city.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The cycling strategy has been put together after Cardiff Council visited Copenhagen to take advice from Gehl Architects, a firm which champions &#8220;cities for people&#8221; by promoting sustainable living, public spaces, and affordable housing.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After agreeing to take action on the draft plan at last week\u2019s cabinet meeting, Cardiff Council have launched a public consultation into the cycle strategy, with the first meeting planned for February 23 in City Hall. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For more information visit <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardiff.gov.uk\/ENG\/resident\/Parking-roads-and-travel\/Walking-and-cycling\/ActiveTravel\/Pages\/default.aspx\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cardiff Council\u2019s website.<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Read the full blog post from Gavin Lewis <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cardiffbybike.com\/2016\/12\/03\/cardiff-cycling-strategy-2016-2026-deep-dive-part-1\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">here.<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AN AMBITIOUS plan to turn Cardiff into one of the UK\u2019s most cycle-friendly cities over the next 10 years has been unveiled by Cardiff Council.
