Officials in Surrey have vowed to improve safety for cyclists after the county topped a list for fatal or serious injuries.
It aims to halve all road deaths by 2030 and eliminate them by 2050.

QUOTE: Keir Gallagher from Cycling UK welcomed the plan. "We need to stop seeing people dying on our roads as acceptable, it isn't" he said. ENDS
The dangerous gammons will all be dead by 2050 - pedestrian deaths will be history by then.
QUOTE: He said: "Over two thirds of our cycling casualties take place on 30mph speed-limit roads, so we're looking at putting more segregated
cycling infrastructure in, either a kerb or a section of wands. ENDS
The local gammon don't like wands as they trap them in their houses, or something.
QUOTE: There's lots of roads that could easily become 20mph, especially
where there isn't room for segregated infrastructure." ENDS
The gammon cannot drive at 20mph without "constantly staring at their speedos" apparently?
Can't they use gears?
