	Redways and Leisure Routes
		Redways were intended (Note 1) "to show for the first time on a city-wide scale how travel for pedestrians and cyclists can be made convenient, safe and pleasant.
		There were also a further 15 Redway accidents recorded which have not been satisfactorily explained but which may have involved pedestrians or cyclists (Two pedestrian Redway injuries are known to have taken place during this month, one as a result of a collision with a cyclist).
		Redways are least suited to this kind of cyclist as the paths have a low design speed, routes are often indirect and momentum is frequently lost on sharp bends, where visibility is poor and when climbing hills (which are more severe and more frequently encountered than on the roads).

		The Redways are for use by pedestrians and cyclists of all ages and levels of experience, including people with prams, pushchairs and those in wheelchairs.

		One of the aims of the redways was to make travel for pedestrians and cyclists convenient, safe, pleasant and accident free, but a study suggests that the system has only partially met these expectations, with low use outside weekends and a questionable safety record.
		Using the redways can be frustrating for experienced cyclists, because they tend to go under or over the roads, rather than vice versa.
		The number of cyclists using the redways is far higher than the number using the roads and their experience levels far lower, but there are no normalised statistics to show which on average is safer.

		Specifically, the complaint alleged that while Redway was a resident at IHS of St. Petersburg and Bon Secours' Maria Manor Nursing Center, he developed pressure wounds and infections, which the staffs at these facilities failed to properly treat.
		She added that since the state's Legislature is presumed to have known of the existence of the medical malpractice pre-suit requirements when it enacted the NPRA, it is "illogical" to assume that the Legislature intended both statutes' pre-suit procedures to apply to NPRA claims.

		There are about 160 miles of "redways," named for the red tarmac used for the surface, and they connect all parts of the city.
		In the modern residential areas redways often run behind rows of houses or alongside the low-speed residential streets, in the rural areas they cut through countryside and farmland to connect the ancient villages, and some redways parallel the high-speed "grid roads" - separated from the road by a curb.
		The redways are extensively used for leisure, occasionally for commuting, and they present to the people of Milton Keynes a great sense of liberation.

		Redways and leisure routes are supplemented by footpaths, which are mostly short links within estates.
		Poor visibility and sharp bends destroy momentum, whilst paths are often indirect.
		At the same time the safety record of Redways and leisure routes has been much less satisfactory than intended, in part, perhaps, because they are being used in ways not envisaged.

		Some redways form part of larger routes on the [National Cycle Network] Unfortunately at all 'at grade' road crossings cyclist have to give way and ceed priority to vehicles on the road with consequent loss of momentum and increased journey times.

	[hpv] Coming Down On Milton Keynes
		The RAC said local authorities were to blame for introducing a baffling array of poorly designed schemes that the report suggests may do little to encourage cycling.
		Analysis of the figures indicates the risk of being involved in an accident is twice as high as on urban roads, while the death rate is more than double that on main roads where, in places, speed limits are as high as 70mph.
		Poor visibility at junctions where the Redways cross roads is said to be the biggest cause of accidents, which are more likely to be serious if a cyclist is hit side-on.

	A REDWAY FAMILY History page
		The Redway Family is scattered throughout the world and due to the efforts of members of this vast family such as Laurence (known as Dick) Redway of Auckland New Zealand and Grace Griffiths of Devon England we have far more knowledge of the many branches of the Redways with its various spellings today.
		The name Redway was frequently spelled Reddaway, Riddaway, Radway, etc., in the seventeenth century and this continued well into the eighteen hundreds when the spelling finally reverted or settled down to the more regular way of Redway.
		Now many Redways can trace their direct forefathers back to 1500s in the west country of England and we all can see where many of the Redway family have settled elsewhere in the world.

		While the roads and streets have been logically arranged in a grid system (which makes car driving so especially dull) the 'Redways' seem to be some kind of antithesis of the systematic approach.
		Although the road network has been designed with speed and ease of traffic movement in mind, the 'Redway' network requires considerable concentration and stamina since direct routes are virtually non-existent and signage is akin to hen's teeth.
		It's also quite dangerous to use the 'Redways', especially if you have to share them with dogs, inline-skaters, pedestrians or prams that don't expect or react to people approaching on bikes.

		Although crime reduction on Redways is a priority in the Council’s crime and disorder strategy and its community safety strategy, there is no detailed strategy of how maintaining the Redways will play a part in encouraging the use of them.
		A programme of surveys for the condition of Redways to develop a maintenance programme will be in place for 2003/04 and beyond.
		The Council’s own LTP states that ‘cycling will be actively promoted and encouraged on both the Redways and the highway.’ We could not find any evidence to show that this has been done.

		This is part of a programme to open up dark areas to make the Redways more user-friendly and help dispel the fear of crime that is associated with them.
		A recent public survey showed that Milton Keynes people perceived Redways as the second most likely place to experience crime and disorder after pubs and nightclubs.
		Richard Solly, Community Safety Manager, commented: "People's fear of crime on the Redways is disproportionate to the actual level and this has a direct influence on the number of people that use them.
