Let’s encourage public transport usage, UK style

Bicycles are a common mode of transport in Cambridge to get to work, run errands and for leisure. Bicycle racks are also widely available, especially in busy commercial areas.

HAVING spent three months in the United Kingdom for a fellowship programme, I was left impressed with how easy it was to travel between and within cities in that country.

I was based in Cambridge throughout the duration of the fellowship, and was fortunate enough to be loaned a bicycle.
