Representing active travel for those in the area of Culham Campus near Oxford UK
Also in attendance (but not taggable on Bluesky, so demoted to this reply as punishment) were county cllr Robin Jones and parish cllr Chris Pritchard.

All levels of government coming together and very much aligned on the importance of more sustainable transport options.

Now to deliver...

Sorry @sustrans.bsky.social we used your delightful FRideDays pun instead of your #FridayWeCycle tag 😄

Thanks for the plug, another video is incoming showing the slightly different route...

CulBUG is at the head of the pack on organising Oxfordshire bikebuses, but there is work to be done on the promptness of our social updates!

Along the road the entire way with 2 marshals front and rear (+ DJ 👨‍🎤🎶)

Drivers were well behaved and as it is a regular Friday event road users should get accustomed to it in the coming weeks.

We decided not to divert onto the shared use path as it is still narrow for the size of the bikebus.

Thanks also to @sustrans.bsky.social @cyclinguk.bsky.social @cycloxoxford.bsky.social for their guidance in getting setup, it's super easy!

Special mention to @emilykerr36.bsky.social for supporting while also having to race back for her own school run!

The A415 causeway is the main problem. It is currently a choice between a busy A-road or a narrow, bumpy, elevated footpath.

So many who would like to cycle to Europa School and @ukaeaofficial.bsky.social are instead pushed into cars, adding to congestion, pollution, and road danger.
Parents at the Europa School and staff at Culham Science Centre have presented an 870-name petition to Oxfordshire County Council calling for a cycle route along the A415 and a safe crossing. They say the current situation poses “an unacceptably high risk of injury and death for children”.

Thank you for your support yesterday! 💚

Hopefully this regular event will highlight that there is no safe cycle provision along the causeway section of A415.

We should empower kids to get to school under their own steam, along with all the benefits that brings: ↗️ health++ ↘️ congestion--
