I AM encouraged to read that David Guest has given his "utmost concentration" to making sure he sees cyclists. ("Protection zone waste of money", November 4)
If drivers start following his initiative, more people will feel safe to ride their bikes, on the roads where they belong.
By segregating traffic where necessary, cycle lanes can help to protect pedestrians, cycle and motor traffic, but only if carefully thought out.
Council and concerned individuals would be well advised to involve all road users in future developments, and to enlist specialist advice such as provided by the CTC (www.ctc.org.uk) and DFT (www.dft.gov.uk).
