Cycling is quick, cheap and healthy. More cycling means less traffic congestion, and it's good for the planet. It's good for everybody! Here are three things Newcastle City Council could do to make it better for everyone: Connected network - join together existing cycle lanes and tracks, so the routes are safe and easy for all School streets - keep traffic away from school gates at the start and end of the school day, so its safer for children to travel by bike Shopping locking - every parade of shops should have some bike stands, so you can lock and leave your bike while you go shopping Ask your candidates what they think about these. Let them know how important they are to you, and to your vote.
