72% aukning hjólreiða í London

72% increase in the number of cyclists


Ekki slæmt  það.  Hér er textinn í samhengi :

According to the Mayor, the reduction in traffic that congestion charging has brought has had many benefits, including a significant cut in CO2 and the most harmful vehicle emissions within the zone.

Independent research demonstrates that road safety has improved with up to 70 fewer personal road injuries per year as a direct result of congestion charging.

And more people than ever before are feeling safe enough to cycle on London's roads. There has been a 72% increase in the number of cyclists on the capital's major roads since 2000, with around 450,000 cycle journeys a day.
