Hi All

have 'really' enjoyed curling up with this hefty tome at night...

If anyone is interested I ahve gone thru most of it and highlighted
(in the pdf) what
(in my humble opinion) is relevant to cycling-related issues

Obviously the report is aimed squarely at making little white delivery
trucks a priority in this
world of 'just-in-time' inventory systems, and many of the directions
seem to aim at making way for 'economy/industry' related initiatives

As per usual, Alan Parker has made many worthy contributions (already
mentioned/quoted)
It may be worthwhile searching for 'Alan Parker Design' as he
addresses most of the cycling-related issues already

If anyone would like a copy of the highlighted pdf, lets me know (it's 3.6Mb)

cheers
