Essentially numbers of cyclists are up and by quite some margin
particularly around Central london, aka City of London and areas like
Hackney.
The combo of direct high quality bike lanes, and Low traffic Zones ie
restricting motorists though traffic, which has been around for nearly 100
years but this is the new term for it, but it’s quite effective, I use a
few regularly be that by bike or car, or sometimes both.
