Cycle Safety GOLD COAST
Hello ALL
I have joined this forum with a specific goal to help my son. He is doing a research project at school his topic is the Perception of Safety for Cyclists on Tallebudgera Creek Road.
He likes to cycle but I won't let him ride along this road as I think it unsafe. He would also like to approach local council etc authorities to try and get a bike way built. (Big ambitions)
Any way he has a little survey he needs cyclist to do So if anybody is familiar with the road or likes to ride it could I please ask you to do the survey.
I am sure if you would like to add additional comments from your experiences that would be great too. I have attached a word doc with the survey this can be emailed back to me kgwinner(at) tpg.com.au- Or I have pasted it below if technology is not kind.
Thank you in advanced if you can help him with the survey. Much appreciated

Every lane is a bike lane
As someone who regularly rides on that road (both day and night) I'll reply here. Your son actually left a comment on my blog about this survey as well, FWIW.
Disagree - It's no worse than any other road on the Gold Coast.
Strongly disagree - bike paths don't do anything to increase cyclist safety -- and the majority of cyclists on that road wouldn't use it anyway.
Strongly disagree - same reasons as above.
Agree - But first I'd settle for existing speed limits being enforced.
Strongly disagree - banning cyclists from a particular road won't stop Queensland from topping the national road toll year after year, considering that cyclists actually make up a minute percentage of overall road deaths.
See my answer to question one, this is effectively the same question rehashed.
