Cyclists' behaviour

What can be done about cycling on the footway and across zebra crossings?

This is something that we will raise with Met Police who have responsibility for enforcing against cyclist riding on footway. It should also be noted that there is a team of dedicated Met Police officers funded by TfL who undertake enforcement operations on the capital’s Cycleway network. These enforcement operations include enforcing rules for all road users.

Once Cycleway 9 is completed, dedicated enforcement of this nature will be available in Chiswick which should also assist in improving behaviour of road users, including cyclists.


Does the council plan to provide any kind of training, information or guidance to help Chiswick residents to understand how to use the new cycleway along Chiswick High Road safely? This applies to cyclists, drivers and pedestrians

Once Cycleway 9 is completed dedicated enforcement of this nature will be available in Chiswick which should also assist in improving behaviour of road users, including cyclists. 

Wider communications to promote the scheme were anticipated associated with the permanent scheme, however this will need to be revisited in line with available resources post COVID-19.
