Social rides highlight cycling issues. Our route last Wed included Horseshoe Bridge. Network Rail is responsible for this Bridge. It is on the Thames Path National Trail and clearly inaccessible to many. Contact the National Trail Office to raise this issue:

In 1970, a pedestrian was twice as likely to be killed in a crash in the US than in the Netherlands.
Today, a pedestrian is **20 times** as likely to be killed in a crash in the US than in the Netherlands.

An excellent blog that indirectly speaks to current fears over ebike batteries also. Gig economy companies effectively nudge riders into taking risks while politicians ring their hands but fail to fix key issues. Build proper cycle infrastructure & control employment conditions & battery sales.
VERY proud to have set the wheels in motion for the @wearepossible.bsky.social research that underpins this piece
“In inner-city London, where about 1 in 10 cycle journeys are undertaken by people like me delivering food, investment in protected bike lanes equates to investment in workers’ safety.”

Let's do it for the children.
These are all great things that would make places nicer to live in

How would children improve transport?
This list looks good to me.
Government support for these actions is an investment in future generations, and has long term benefits for public health, communities and the environment.
Great work from Sustrans & Halfords.
