UKIP have supported the CTC’s ‘Vote Bike’ campaign  saying:

“Britain needs a sustainable transport policy which is fair to all and serves the needs of our country. We wish to encourage cycling, and improve access and safety for cyclists.

“We would seek to introduce interurban cycle tracks by utilising the network of closed railway lines and, where possible, increase extra cycling lanes. These would be high quality paved surfaces, and lit at night.

“We would encourage participation in a cycling proficiency test to ensure an understanding of the Highway Code and the rules of the road.”

However – the manifesto makes no mention of cycling – and transport minister Jill Seymour is quoted in the manifesto to say: “Motorists should not feel as if they are being used as cash cows to boost national or local government funds.”

The manifesto states that they will not allow speed cameras “as revenue raisers”, and they will remove road tolls.

The legacy of vintage cars is also high on the agenda, and they state: “To help protect the enduring legacy of the motor industry and our classic and historic vehicles, UKIP will exempt vehicles over 25 years old from Vehicle Excise Duty.”

So – who will you be voting for?
