"Motorists and cyclists will always be using our roads. What things could we trial to ensure they share the roads safely? "

Do you have any ideas that to trial or pilot that allow us to test attitudes, feasibility and benefits? Can we consider new ways of sharing our roads with respect to each other’s needs and ensure both are viable and safe modes of transport?
