Often ranting about TfL's worst Cycleway (#Cycleway1). Tens of thousands of potential cycle journeys are lost every day because huge compromise were made.

Good old #Cycleway1. Driver blocking contraflow lane with parked car and other cars blocking ambulance on emergency call. But at least they've resurfaced the road! Thanks a bunch @hackneycouncil.bsky.social and TfL for this dreadful Cycleway route. This is fit for purpose is it @willnorman.co.uk?

"free parking".
Someone always pays. It's never free.
Pump the money into public and active transport instead, then everyone can benefit.

This right here is why proper cycling infrastructure is an investment in our communities and our future.
It is only the beginning. This route isn’t even fully finished.
When we stop imagining and start doing, change happens.

In 2024, 1,671 people were killed on UK roads and 28,804 were seriously injured. Do you think this is acceptable? This week is #RoadSafetyWeek and we’re calling on the Government to take action to prevent road death and injury.

A route is only as useful and inviting as its weakest part. And #Cycleway1 has an abundance of weak sections! Fancy crossing this road and negotiating your way down this side road with your loved ones by bicycle? No? Me neither. @willnorman.co.uk thinks it's fine!

Obviously glad to see another tinkering of a section of the #Cycleway1 route, but this part is very poorly managed @hackneycouncil.bsky.social! Narrow pavements and "cyclists dismount" signs are well below par in this day and age. @willnorman.co.uk
