Government invests millions into cycling schemes
Wednesday, 14 August 2013
The Government has announced that it will spend more than £94 million on cycling schemes across England.
David Cameron said
"a lot of people want to cycle and we want to make it easier for them to do so. Only 2% of journeys in this country are made by cycle. In Germany it's 14% and in Holland it's 33%. So we could do a lot better."
Eight cities will share some £77 million to improve cycling routes and to boost participation.
- Greater Manchester - £20 million
- West Yorkshire - £18.1 million
- Birmingham - £17 million
- West of England - £7.8 million
- Newcastle - £5.7 million
- Cambridge - £4.1 million
- Norwich - £3.7 million
- Oxford - £0.8 million
