Cycling Initiatives - Exchanging places
On Wednesday 11 June, Sisk partnered with a number of organisations to organise the Old Street Cycle Festival in the City of London.
One of those partners,The Metropolitan Police, have set up a cycle task force called Exchanging Places and there were 46 participants present at the event. Cyclists are encouraged to sit in the Police demonstrator lorry in order to understand the constraints on lorry drivers' visibility from the driver's seat.
It was a huge success with 66 bicycles receiving free tagging, 47 people signed up for free cycle lessons and the Islington Bike Doctor made 52 bike safety checks.
A local School took part in a poster design to support the initiative; one of the posters is shown above....very apt!!
