Tackling Obesity in Harlow
Essex County Council is promoting cycling as an effective and enjoyable form of aerobic exercise to reduce the incidence heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity in the county. Unfortunately it was discovered that, rather than pedalling briskly, Harlow's cyclists were freewheeling down this gently sloping path. To counter this, signs have been introduced at regular intervals requiring cyclists to get off and walk. This particularly daunting section, requires seven dismounts within a distance of 380 yards Note, how at each junction the kerbs are maintained on the downhill side of the path, thus ensuring that even the laziest cyclists gain the full health benefits from their activity. |
This site is dedicated to highlighting examples of how innovative design and outstanding engineering offer safety, utility, and comfort to cyclists. If you know of a cycle facility worthy of inclusion on this site, either within Warrington or beyond, then send a photo (jpg) and short description to Pete Owens.
