Theory test revision: What can you expect to find when there’s a contraflow system ahead on a motorway? Cyclists gain most benefit when an existing street is converted to one-way for traffic management reasons and there's no reason to send riders round the houses. So called false one way streets - where there's a NO ENTRY at one end with an exception for cycles while the road remains two-way - are generally a good idea because they are introduced in an attempt to prevent rat-running etc and there's then no reason to penalise cyclists.

The “emergency” nature of the works, done as they were in response to the pandemic, also facilitated speedy development, she says.Double white lines where the line nearer to you is solid. This means you MUST NOT cross or straddle it unless it is safe and you need to enter adjoining premises or a side road. You may cross the line if necessary, provided the road is clear, to pass a stationary vehicle, or overtake a pedal cycle, horse or road maintenance vehicle, if they are travelling at 10 mph (16 km/h) or less.

The report suggests permitting cycling through pedestrianised areas in the town centre, and adding cycle parking. Sure, when sharing the road, the primary position is the safest position to ride, and the best option to calm down the motorists traffic. Indeed, it is the most natural position to ride a bike, as any other vehicles, in the middle of the lane, being well visible and predictable to any others, that is the golden rule for your safety. In the ‘Rules of the road’ book you can see about that (p.198). Riding in such way, you have more room for you, more safety, if anyone wants to overtake you, has to do it better occupying partial or totally the lane on the right, as if you were driving a car, and even if driver does not overtake you with safety, you still keep the enough safety room on your left.
