Licence No. 100023320 2015 Appendix E – Extract from Local Area Walking and Cycling Statistics 2012/13 (Department for Transport) Appendix E - Cycling Statistics for East Lancashire Strategic Cycle Network Business Case - March 2015 Cycling statistics are now summarised annually in the Local Area Walking and Cycling Statistics produced by the Department for Transport. This is available online at https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/local-area-walking-and-cycling-in-england-2012- to-2013 Unless mentioned otherwise the figures below are from the 2012/13 statistics released in April 2014. Frequency of Cycling The latest figures from 2012-13 show that the proportion of adults in England that cycle at least once a week is 9.5%. Rossendale has a similar proportion at 9.6% whereas both Hyndburn and Blackburn with Darwen have significantly smaller proportions at 5.6% and 6.2% respectively. In contrast to these values Cambridge has by far the largest proportion of it's population cycling at lease once a week in England at 48.6%. Figure 1 - Proportion of adults cycling at least once a week 60.0 50.0 40.0 % 30.0 20.0 Blackburn with Hyndburn 5.6% Rossendale 9.6% Darwen 6.2% 10.0 England 9.5% 0.0 Highest <- Local Authorities -> Lowest In addition to at least once a week, other frequencies were also looked at. The results for these can be seen in figure 2. There are a couple of interesting trends that come from these results. Firstly, compared to both Rossendale and Blackburn with Darwen, Hyndburn has a smaller proportion of adults which cycle at least once a month and cycle at least once a week. However, it has a higher proportion of adults which cycle alt least three times a week and at least 5 times a week. In fact, the proportion which cycle at least 5 times a week (2.8%) is higher than both the North West (1.9%) and England (2.5%) values. Secondly, there is a significant drop in Rossendale from the proportion of adults cycling at least once a week (9.6%) to those cycling at least three times a week (1.6%). This is a much higher drop off compared to Hyndburn, Blackburn with Darwen or the North West and England averages. Interestingly there is hardly any drop off from those cycling at least 3 times a week to cycling 5 times a week from 1.6% to 1.3%. Figure 2 - Proportion of adults cyling at least once a month/once aweek/3 times a week/5 times a week Blackburn with Darwen Hyndburn Rossendale North West England 16.0 14.0 12.0 10.0 8.0 6.0 4.0 2.0 0.0 Three times a Five times a Once a month Once a week week week Blackburn with Darwen 9.3 6.2 2.6 1.0 Hyndburn 8.2 5.6 3.9 2.8 Rossendale 13.7 9.6 1.6 1.3 North West 12.8 8.2 3.3 1.9 England 14.7 9.5 4.3 2.5 Cycling to Work The proportion of the working age population that cycle to work is available from the 2011 Census. The England average is 1.9%, higher than all the three districts with Blackburn with Darwen being the highest at 1.4% (also the North West average), followed by Hyndburn at 0.7% and Rossendale at 0.5%.

  • Report on Core Areas of Work
    Formatted APPENDIX A - REPORT ON CORE AREAS OF WORK Carriageway Resurfacing Programme 1. Luton‟s highway network is an essential communication link that serves almost everyone everyday of the week and for a wide variety of reasons from simply visiting friends and relatives to vital business deliveries. Roads are an extremely valuable asset and in Luton their Gross Replacement Value is currently £470.25m. 2. In 2011/12 we delivered 33 resurfacing schemes and spent c. £1,500,000 of capital and revenue funding. However, with another severe winter in 2010/11 many roads had deteriorated further with the long period of freeze/thaw leading to the accelerated break- up of carriageway surfaces, with extensive cracking, crazing and potholes. 3. In addition in March 2011 the Department for Transport allocated £248,006 of Winter Pothole Funding to LBC following severe winter weather. This was used for large area road patching with over 28 roads treated. 4. Weather predictions for future years indicate an increasing trend for more exceptional weather conditions resulting in further pressure on already reducing maintenance budgets. Highway maintenance is increasingly a matter of managing the deterioration of assets. 5. The classified road (A, B & C roads) network is assessed annually using nationally developed criteria and the unclassified network is assessed every two years. Figures supplied to government show that we are currently only spending half of what would be required to maintain Luton‟s roads in their current condition. 361 resurfacing schemes have been identified following carriageway condition surveys of the road network. 6. Based upon results of the assessments, and referrals from area Highway Inspectors, Highway Services has developed a programme of work for carriageways which need immediate and significant improvement.
