<p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Department does not estimate the cost per mile of building
cycle lanes. Cycling infrastructure varies in design and cost due to the location
and scheme design. The provision of cycling facilities is a matter for local authorities
and as such they are best placed to determine the spend per mile for building cycle
lanes. The Department does provide best practice information in cycle infrastructure
design through its publication <em>Cycle Infrastructure Design</em> (Local Transport
Note 2/08). The Department encourages local authorities, both in urban and rural areas,
to obtain best value in the provision of highways infrastructure.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
