  11. Monitoring and review • Sustrans is developing a Bike Account programme with 7 LAs including Newcastle support which will lead to sustainable change in how cities monitor, evaluate and report cycling. • Parameters and targets will be agreed with the 7 LAs with a view to rolling this out nationally. • It will cover all cycling activities, not just CCAF.

  12. The Bike Account The Copenhagen Bicycle Account includes information relating to the following topics: • What Copenhagen’s cyclists thought was done well and what could be improved. • How Copenhagen is doing compared to its key targets. • Key cycling figures (cycled km, cycled km between serious casualties, cycling speed, cycle tracks, cycle lanes, maintenance, cycle parking spaces on roads and pavements). • Integration of cycling and public transport. • The relationship between cyclists’ sense of safety, their actual safety and their behaviour. • The impact of initiatives over the last two years. • The benefits of cycling

  13. Beyond CCAF • CCAF is the start of a ten year programme. • More funding will be coming. • The future might be on two wheels….
