General Issues:
Robin Edgely (for a policy to lead from a firm cycling plan that includes consultation with cyclists; changes to road infrastructure includes cyclists needs)
Glen Warren (establishment of a cycle network; adopt engineering best practices; create a continuous cycle path)
John Monro (policy must clearly and actively promot an encourage mode shift from private motor vehicle to cycling)
Lynn Sleath (increase cycle numbers; sustainability; public bike rental scheme)
Rebecca Spairs (quantification of targets)
Ricki (proportional spending)
André Cymbalista (omission of a cycle network plan and the need to have one; WCC policy not aligned with Regional Cycling Strategy and National TRansport Strategy)
Safety (Objective 1):
Glen Warren (signage; road markings; road sweeps)
Ian Bennett (cycling network)
John Monro (urgent need for speed reduction; cars must give way to cyclists and pedestrians)

Stuart Edwards (ensuring policies are policies which make cycling safe in every possible circumstance)
Ricki (meaningful targets)
Convenience of Cycling in Wellington (Objective 2):
Ian Bennett (simple fixes for better cycling)
André Cymbalista (cycle parking facilities is not the only thing needed to improve convenience of cycling)
Trips to and from Central Area (Objective 3):
Glen Warren (Hutt Valley link with the CBD)
Ivonne Weeber (From Lyall Bay to Central Area; cycle lanes on Jervois Quay & Waterloo Quay instead of forcing cyclists to use waterfront)
André Cymbalista (Bus and Cycle Lanes must be of adequate width and properly marked; share the road campaigns should target bus drivers, and not the general car driver or cyclist, and should follow guidelines & best practice for share the road campaigns; the implementation plan is confusing, and hasn't been developed using best practice)

Trips made to and from Educational Centres (Objective 5):
Trips made for Recreation (Objective 6):
Ivonne Weeber (cycling around Miramar Peninsula)
