Legislative Council Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia Legislative Council published Question Time Cycling Strategy Cycling Strategy The Hon. M.C. PARNELL Legislative Council Cycling Strategy The Hon. M.C. PARNELL (15:17): My question is for the Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation representing the Minister for Transport and Infrastructure, and it is about cycling. My question is: if cycling is to be allowed on footpaths, what strategy does the government have to ensure that the existing road network will be made as safe as possible for cyclists so that the need for adults to ride on the footpath is kept to an absolute minimum? Secondly, as I have asked on many occasions, when will a new cycling strategy for South Australia be released? The Hon. K.J. MAHER Legislative Council Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation Cycling Strategy The Hon. K.J. MAHER (Minister for Manufacturing and Innovation, Minister for Automotive Transformation, Minister for Aboriginal Affairs and Reconciliation) (15:18): I thank the honourable member for his question. I will pass those questions on to the minister in another place and bring back a reply. I do note, though, that in my experience Adelaide is very cycling friendly. We could always do better, but compared to a lot of other places, cycling is easier in Adelaide than most places. I presume the honourable member was involved in Ride to Work Day again this year and I apologise it for not making it as I have in previous years. I rode in on Monday and Tuesday and, quite frankly, I was too tired to ride in on Wednesday with him.
