In Wales, Cornwall, Edinburgh, London and so many places when most 30mph roads were changed to 20mph, people injured or killed by motor vehicles reduced by 20%+. With minimal change to journey times and £2bn saving in insurance costs it's a huge win. bit.ly/4gIBPlJ

Even today, across our neighbourhoods there are instances where dropped kerbs are either missing or not suitable. This impacts on how people who use a wheelchair (and others) get around their local community.

It's time central government gave councils the power to ban the scourge of pavement parking!

It's time for the government to act and give councils in England the power to enforce against pavement parking.

For Cycle to School Week 2025, why not make a pledge that helps children get to school in a sustainable and healthy way.

It can be replacing just one car journey with a bike ride - imagine the impact if every car driver did just that?

MC74NTT. Warning letter from @gmpolice.bsky.social for this close pass. We need something better than just sending letters one driver at a time; the problem is endemic.

Bike lanes needed on Holloway Road, Cycleway 50 needs updating & completing to Tottenham Hale. The Dartmouth Park, Tufnell Park Barnsbury & Laycock & Highbury New Park Liveable Neighbourhoods need to be implemented. We need decent secure cycle parking solutions & TfL bike docks near the stadium.

“In London cyclists now outnumber cars in the City by 2 to 1. Paris, where they now outnumber motorists across the whole city, is catching up with Europe’s traditional bike capitals, Amsterdam & Copenhagen…In Copenhagen, bikes account for almost half of commuter trips to work/school.” @economist.com

Are you heading to a primary school open day soon? Can you ask a Q about travel & #AirPollution?

💚 Do you have a sustainable travel policy?
💚 Do you discourage people from driving to school?
💚 Do you enable #ActiveTravel?

Some facts about an active #SchoolRun: www.mumsforlungs.org/news/make-th...
A background image of children cycling, overlaid with two text boxes. A green one says "School open day questions". A pink one says "Do you have a sustainable travel policy?"

It's impressive how quickly Paris has transformed car-dominant roads, prioritising more efficient modes of transportation. One lane for drivers on the right side, made to wallow in their own stop-and-start inefficiency, two giant lanes for bikes.
