THE Government has allocated millions of pounds of taxpayers money to build a network of cycle lanes across the country, this includes the BCP area.
Yet once again whilst driving back past the airport I found myself crawling along in a line of traffic from the traffic lights at the airport entrance to Chapel Gate entrance.
The reason for this was a lone cyclist completely oblivious to other road users.

What is most annoying is the fact that there is a footpath/cycle path that runs all along this route, yet ignorant cyclists ignore using it.
I am also a cyclist and try not to be a nuisance on the road, using cycle paths wherever possible.
The law needs to be changed in so much that cyclists should use cycle lanes where provided or else face prosecution and a fine.
