Hahaha this is the kind of idea that halts all development so some stupid comittee can discuss names for years. Who cares what the name is? Highway is an okay name
Is it really? I don't recall the cycleways being dominated by young white men.
Not that I always feel safe on 'cycle superhighways' which in many places are just a glorified bike lane tacked on as a complete afterthought, weaving on and off pavements and around bus stops, lacking proper signs to know where it continues after an intersection or just randomly finishing and leaving you stuck in the midst of cars.
@matti it's what TFL reports, as far as I know, I don't have first hand experience. Well, I have been in London and what I recall is people going seriously fast on the main bike paths (I think the super highways). Much faster than elsewhere I've been.
