  • What More Can Be Done to Encourage People to Change Their Travelling
    WRITTEN SUBMISSION FROM ALASTAIR MORRISON This is in response to the Call for Views on Walking and Cycling in Scotland. I am both a walker and a cyclist, but I find that provision for active travel on foot is generally adequate, whereas I meet many difficulties when I try to cycle instead of going by car, so I will confine my comments to cycling. Since retiring in 2001, moving to a new part of Scotland, and attempting to return to my youthful preference for cycling, I have felt justified on several occasions to write to the authorities about difficulties I have met. As your deadline is close, I thought the most effective way to respond would be enclose extracts from these letters. This means that I am not responding specifically to the 6 questions in your Call, but the letters mainly relate to questions 3, 4 and 5. Basically the letters describe difficulties which people meet when they try travelling by cycle, and which will presumably discourage anyone who lacks experience or confidence from trying a second time. I leave it to you to draw general principles from the specific examples of problems described in these letters. For brevity I have omitted parts of all the letters and, assuming that this submission may be made publicly available, I have also omitted names and full addresses. Yours sincerely, Alastair Morrison. Letter 1. Sainsbury’s Cycle Park. To: Sainsbury's Dear Sir, My home is roughly equidistant from Tesco and Sainsbury's. I sometimes use my bicycle (equipped with paniers) for shopping.
