HOW lucky are we to have the services of councillor Andy Hadley guiding us in his capacity as cabinet member responsible for roads and cycle lanes at BCP.

This is a man who can create huge transport problems and then come up with solutions.

The traffic chaos which has been created by the long term road works to provide cycle lanes which are taking place around the Ringwood Road are causing huge delays to drivers as was reported recently but worry not the solution by Mr Hadley is to make the journeys instead of your car on your bike.

The wands erected on Wimborne Road which protect the cyclist but stop the householders from driving into their homes are excused by Mr Hadley are and I quote "the team have attempted to balance maintaining access to driveways and protecting the cycle route".

I wonder if when all of these works are finished BCP area will start to look like China on cycles. I doubt it.
