Interesting article on infrastructure design positively impacting adoption of journeys by bicycle. Some good recent progress on cycle infrastructure in BCP but some clear joined up thinking like this would def increase adoption @MrDEB74
An impressive 50% of all journeys in Delft are made by bicycle. Not because of culture, climate, or topography. But because they designed and built a dense and cohesive network of high-quality infrastructure, within reach of every origin and destination. bicycledutch.wordpress.com/2…

Useful morning at #FOSS4GUKOnline great talk by @JamesLMilner on dealing with geospatial problems with JS, particularly topological spatial problem spaces with JS libraries. Keen to explore JSTS which is a new one to me github.com/bjornharrtell/jst…
