Petition To implement a national standard for the design of cycle lanes by cyclists.

A lot of money has been spent recently on local cycle schemes that have been very poorly implimented; therefore not having the desired effect and in some places making the roads more dangerous for all road users. I believe there should be a national standard for the design of cycle routes and paths.
