What do we make of that then?
I think it's great. Might even make me start shopping there again...
I find aldi's are much better value.
wonder which roads they own and which councils have agreed if any to give up road space for us cyclists, and shouldnt it be miles not KMs.
EVERY LITTLE HELPS.
new delivery bike bike service?
Details?
Probably just so they've got somewhere convenient to park their ****ing delivery vans!
Shows how powerful STW has got! One thread complaining about them and we get this 🙂
Details?

Well 600km sounds more impressive than 370 miles I suppose.
It works put as roughly 20m or cycle lane per store...
Cycling is on the up generally, and everyone is looking for an angle... Not that bothered by tesco either way, but planning and funding the building of cycling infrastructure should really be the job of local authorities.
EVERY LITTLE bit of greenwash HELPS
Good to see that they are giving something back to the community....That is, after having destroyed the high street and independent retailers irreparably nationwide. **** 'em.
If Aldi were planning on building the cycle lanes you would get 500 miles for the same money.

Yea, but their sausages are the wurst.
Painting a 20meter line around the edge of all their car parks is hardly great
10 meters of bike shed would be a good start.
Asda install 5, then go and put other stuff in the carpark that blocks them off.

That's almost enough to completely link up most major cities.
That is like a lap of each car park

FIFY
Now if Carlsberg built cycle lanes...

Yeah but it would be full to capacity by lunchtime on the first day and you'd have to wait six months until they build more.

So you wouldn't agree that they are possibly responsible for changing consumer behaviour to their benefit, Frank?
They are part of the reason why the nation drive to the shops on the edge of town these days. Building a token amount of bikelanes just underlines their hypocrisy.
Hilarious, a Tesco home delivery van cut me up and knocked me off last December.
Depot manager wasn't interested nor was anyone in there head office, they didn't care at all. Luckily my British cycling membership sorted it all out for me.
Guess its there latest advertising campaign, jump on the cycling band wagon.
