Staysafe Inquiry into Vulnerable Road Users
August 2010
Bicycle NSW was keen to assist the Committee in its deliberations and achieve better outcomes, safety and health, for people using the road space particularly people riding bicycles. Therefore, our focus in the attached submission is on bicycle riding and its relationship to the road environment and all other people using the road space, typically categorised into groups.
Bicycle NSW is of course keen to reduce the number and severity of accidents involving people riding bicycles, although we consider that this has to be done with a commitment to create more safer and more conducive environment that encourages more people to ride a bicycle (and walk) for transport and recreation, supporting health and social equity.
Bicycle NSW has offer to accompany members of the Staysafe Committee, either on bicycles or not, to look at bicycle facilities in more detail.
