Please provide the latest statistics for numbers of cyclists involved in incidents involving injury to pedestrians in wider UK and London. Also - please give an update as to when the response and results to your consultation on cycling behaviour and safety is due to be released.

In relation to the second part of your request, it is uncertain exactly what consultation you are referring to. If you can supply more details I can look into the matter further. The Department for Transport (DfT) ran a consultation on a similar theme last year so it may be worth contacting them. Information on making an FOI request to the DfT can be found here: https://forms.dft.gov.uk/foi-dft-and-dft-agencies/   

If this is not the information you are looking for please do not hesitate to contact me.

Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.

Yours sincerely,
