Quote with cyclists suggesting that they have been forced to avoid the route for the “foreseeable future”, amidst concerns that an “epidemic of joyriding” has turned the beloved cycling path into the “wild west”, with one even claiming that they feel “safer between buses and cars”. Wish I felt confident that the police will do much. Usual claims of higher priorities.Title: Re: Problems on Bristol & Bath Railway Path Post by: CyclingSid on December 18, 2024, 10:00:22 Quote £1 million upgrade touted for popular cycling path, including CCTV cameras to tackle "wild west" bikejackings that saw cyclists ditch route and feel "safer between buses and cars" from https://road.cc/content/news/ps1-million-upgrade-touted-popular-cycling-path-311769 (https://road.cc/content/news/ps1-million-upgrade-touted-popular-cycling-path-311769) All very well having CCTV, but who will be monitoring it? Bodies cost money or will they hope to do something with AI. This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
