Public bike share has become an increasingly important transport option and Mark is one of the UK’s leading experts in this field. He has carried out feasibility studies for many cities to help them decide whether they should develop a scheme, including Guildford, Derby, Greater Manchester and Brighton & Hove (the most successful scheme outside London).
In 2018/19 Mark represented CIHT on the Department for Transport steering group overseeing the development of a new Local Transport Note on the design of cycling infrastructure. When published in 2019 this will set out guidance for the development of high quality cycle provision.
