Thanks for your comment Suzy. SPACE supports the implementation of safe separated infrastructure, which ensures that people who choose to cycle are not mixing with pedestrians and/or vehicles.
There are also many free training courses available: (e.g. https://www.bikeright.co.uk/newcastle/freewheeling/) but it’s not within our remit to actually train people.

In my experience, they are road users AND pedestrians, depending on what their whim is, and can be thoughtless and dangerous on both the roads and pavements. They are terrifying.
