Cycle Safety Petition & Campaign
Please pass this message on to anyone who might be interested in it.
For
many Kiwis the distressing deaths of two cyclists in the Wellington
region on Friday 19 June have highlighted the need for New Zealand's
roads to be made safer for people already cycling or wanting to take it
up.
There
are Government strategies and programmes to promote cycling and cycle
safety, but we haven't seen many changes on the street yet.
The Cycling Advocates' Network (CAN) is running a campaign to get its 9-Point Plan for Cycle Safety adopted by the Government.
