"there is no reason to assume they are less likely to be involved in a collision than before" There is every reason. Chiswick High Rd has far more people visiting there, walking, cycling, using public transport than any of the residential streets or major arterial roads in the area. Drivers aren't going to injure many pedestrians or cyclists on the A4 through Chiswick because there are very few people walking or cycling there because, unlike Chiswick High Rd, there are few reasons for people to go there. Overall, we can expect less casualties if a driver uses the A4 through Chiswick than the A315. It is just basic principles that you can expect more casualties if there is dangerous machinery in an area with lots of people around compared to an area with much fewer people around. You are also assuming that the numbers of people driving remains fixed and never changes. The point of the bike lane is more choice for people getting around the area. There are traffic survey cameras along Chiswick High Rd recording cycle and vehicle counts 24x7 and there are now more people on bikes than cars during weekday peak times. |
