Mr. Peter Strachan:

A strong and encouraging area of expertise the NTA has in-house and with its consultant partners is the ability to design road space and make sure we are at 2023 levels of understanding of best practice. The board was taken through the cycling policy and strategy document at either its second or third most recent meeting. I was quite encouraged because the way in which we deploy road space was up there in terms of world best practice. While we could get a tape measure and measure the thing - the Deputy might tempt me to do that - I am assured by the expertise we have in-house that we are capable of getting that right, which is important.
