Cycling with video cameras - a cyclist's perspective: Part 2 How to report and what happens next +
How do I report bad driving? Avon & Somerset Police (ASP) developed an online reporting page for 'incidents on the road' a little while ago: avonandsomerset.police.uk/report/accident-on-the-road/#/ Reports must be made within seven days of the incident. This is because the Police only have 14 days to send out a Notice of Intended Prosecution, requiring the registered keeper of the vehicle to identify the driver.

A Health and Safety Perspective of Cycling Safety +
When thinking about reducing risk on our roads and Road Danger Reduction, it's helpful to draw from the experience of engineering and construction. These used to be highly dangerous occupations but years of steady focus on eliminating risk have established a culture that tolerates zero casualties.

Why do a few cars get half the space on Prince St Bridge? +
In 2017 Prince Street Bridge was reopened after major repairs. This was shortly followed by a separated cycle path on Prince Street connecting Broad Quay and Cumberland Road. We have looked at the usage figures from the most recent count by Bristol City Council, which took place in July 2019. Our handy infographic shows the huge change that is possible with quality infrastructure. Numbers of people walking and cycling have doubled, while car use has… Read More
Bristol Cycling Infographics +
Here at Bristol Cycling, we love an infographic. Recently we have had a lot of emails from people asking if they can use the infographics we have produced. The short answer is an overwhelming YES! The only reason we put these together is so they will be shared. We don't make any money from advertising, clicks or copyright, our primary purpose is to make Bristol better for cycling. We want our messages to be spread… Read More
