Support the rediscovery & renovation of 500 miles of “lost” 1930s cycleways.
In the 1930s, Britain's Ministry of Transport commissioned the building of 500-miles of protected cycleways. Between 1934 and 1940 more than 300 miles of these innovative cycleways were actually built, usually both sides of the new "arterial roads" springing up all over the country.
Some of these cycleways still exist, but they are not today understood to be cycle infrastructure: they should be rededicated. Others are buried under a couple of inches of soil: they could be excavated.
With your help we'll be able to demonstrate that the space for cycling is there, and in many cases it has been there for a long time!
Those who sign this petition will be supporting something of potentially national importance.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could ask the UK Government to provide funding for renovating "lost" cycleways, if that's what you would like to happen.
