Had a heads up on this in a professional capacity today:
Summary: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/microsites/fr...gistics-and-cyclist-safety-summary-report.pdf
Full report: http://www.tfl.gov.uk/microsites/freight/documents/publications/construction-logistics-and-cyclist-safety-technical-report.pdf
"Detailed analysis of cyclist fatalities has shown that of the 16 in 2011 in London, nine
involved a heavy goods vehicle (HGV), and seven of these were construction vehicles.
Given that the construction industry is responsible for only a small proportion of freight
traffic in GB and London this suggests that construction vehicles may be overrepresented
in cyclist fatalities in London"
I've not had time to read it yet, but thought it may be of interest.
