TfL is building on the existing pan-London cycling monitoring programme which will cover the infrastructure delivered as part of my Cycling Vision.  The results of this monitoring will be used to develop and improve each Cycling Vision programme to ensure they are contributing effectively to my overall cycling strategy and the 5 per cent cycling mode share target in my transport strategy.
