This is a survey about the Saunton to Braunton route by a local councillor, who is seeking your input on walking and cycling safety, speed limits and options to pursue, given the right support.

Interesting debate, some of our local painted-on cycle lanes are too narrow to be safely utilised, due to gully drains and potholes around ironworks. Why not paint full width cycle lanes on roads that can’t yet accommodate a physically segregated cycle path? This approach is used on single carriageway rural roads on popular cycle routes in Switzerland, acting as a reminder to share the available space safely. Saunton Road comes to mind and seems to be trending on Facebook.

Like swimming with sharks!

We like this visual explanation of unprotected bike lanes. This is why we oppose painted only lanes on high traffic strategic cycle routes.
