It's normal in these areas of blue-sky thinking for there to be documents put forward by a number of people - we encourage it, we're not parochial about the development of thought around these new areas.
Reading the public information on the scheme, it is clear to me that rather than the focus of SkyCycle being on safety, the focus is on capacity and speed.

Blue sky thinking and transport, in my experience, has a sticky history.
Transport is a very practical business. It is driven by rules and procedure, with practical problems requiring practical solutions. Lord Foster does his best at a sales pitch for the project:. SkyCycle is a lateral approach to finding space in a congested city. By using the corridors above the suburban railways, we could create a world-class network of safe, car free cycle routes that are ideally located for commuters.
That distinguished architectural minds such as that of Lord Foster are paying attention to how we can make cycling safer in our cities should be welcomed. But this solution only tackles part of it. The fundamental problem that is not tackled is making our streets safe for cycling.
But making our streets safe for cycling simply has to take priority. Reading the public information on the scheme, it is clear to me that rather than the focus of SkyCycle being on safety, the focus is on capacity and speed.
Reducing commuter journey times and providing capacity for up to cyclists per hour are laudable aims, but I thought that we as transport professionals were moving away from simple speed and capacity to measure scheme success? Streets are where life in our towns and cities takes place, where vulnerable road users face the greatest dangers and are in greatest need of our expertise on making them safe.
Junctions, lack of segregated links on major roads, and poor permeability are just a few of the myriad of issues facing cyclists everyday at street level. Shoving them up in the sky does not tackle any of those issues, and at worst will distract decision makers and funding providers from tackling these issues.
