We have had a second article published with local political blog Inside-Croydon, this time covering the events leading up to the cycling death on Mitcham Road and the aftermath.

I use this road every day to get to work. The Mitcham end is not too bad, but in Croydon this road is so dangerous, cycle lane markings faded away, potholes, no thought to the cyclist. Croydon Council should be ashamed
And even now, over a year on, the condition of the cycle lane of this stretch of road is appalling. It’s dangerous, and unuseable in parts. The surface is in urgent need of replacement.
Please Croydon Council make this a priority before another cyclist dies on this stretch of road!
