This morning we held a community cycle around Stroud Green, London, N4. Despite the damp day it was a joy to see children developing their confidence in cycling on the road. We set off from Finsbury Park. Our marshals did a great job in keeping us safe. 🚲 🌎🧵1/5
Do your bit for nature and benefit from working together to improve our park. Join us this Saturday 23 November at 10am - all welcome - tools provided. Even if just for an hour you will feel good from doing it. 😀
Today is the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims. Today we remember all those who have lost their lives on our roads. But we should also remember that these are not accidents. These are results. These are the results of the choices we’ve made as a society.
I was honoured to attend the @roadpeace remembrance service yesterday with @SebDance I’d like to thank everyone who shared their traumatic stories of how they had lost loved ones. I left galvanised & even more determined to make our streets safer for everyone. #VisionZero
Last year 95 people were killed on London's roads. Today is the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims and marks the start of #RoadSafetyWeek.
Right, I’m off to Bakau and COP29 to talk about the quiet power of these 2-wheeled machines to decarbonise. We’ve done the numbers and you’ll be amazed (Tuesday the 19th) @activetraveleng @DefraGovUK @transportgovuk @Ed_Miliband @MaryCreagh_
We're marching because we're angry . Sewage , agricultural run-off , the huge profits from water companies . . . enough is enough . Sunday 11am , Albert Enbankment – see you there @MarchforWater
THIS IS HUGE. Paris City Hall has announced that starting on Monday, Paris will limit (not ban) car traffic in the city centre, as cities like Ghent have done. They’re creating a limited traffic zone (ZTL) about 2 sq miles in size, to clean the air & create more space for people.
Arriving home to congestion, fumes and chaos after a budget featuring: ❌ rail fare rises, ❌ railcards up £5 ❌ bus fares up 50% … and fuel duty frozen 🤦♂️ These streets were built for railway workers and this community used to be a liveable neighbourhood. We prefer this…?
Don’t worry, there was a roundtable in Davos that pledged to reach net zero by 2050
Today, a small victory for accuracy as National Highways says it has stopped using the word ‘accident’ when describing road collisions impacting its roads: fleetnews.co.uk/news/national-…
The great thing about bicycle bridges is they don't need to be particularly strong or heavy. They only have to carry limited loads. It makes them affordable and easy to install. This one across a 9-lane highway was installed in a single weekend. 📹youtu.be/_jO2xD-qM58
53 years later, and this is London. A disjointed approach to road danger with design principles applied when easy. Time for this to be taken seriously @MayorofLondon
When I visited Dutch officials in Delft, they told me how they built big protected cycle paths but people didn’t use them, because they didn’t have the network joining them all up. It's a mistake often made in other countries, including the UK.
This tragedy is a very sad reminder that motor vehicles kill. It also reinforces the focus on prioritising fixing our most dangerous junctions. Deepest condolences to the family and friends. standard.co.uk/news/london/wo…
Touchscreen controls in modern cars pose a road safety risk, a representative of Euro NCAP, the consumer organisation that gives safety ratings on cars, told an event in Dublin thejournal.ie/car-touchscree…
🧵 1) We are greatly saddened to hear about this pedestrian casualty. Every road death is unacceptable for the victim and a profound tragedy their family & friends. Three other pedestrian deaths have occured in this area in the last 18 months ... standard.co.uk/news/london/wo…
I *love* this quote from Pontevedra's mayor, Miguel Anxo Fernandez Lores: "It's not my duty as Mayor to make sure you have a parking spot. For me, it's the same as if you bought a cow, or a refrigerator, and then asked me where you're going to put them."
This Spanish city centre has been car-free for 20+years. 12k people have moved into the centre since the ban. The Mayor says vehicles don’t have more right to public space than people — & he’s been re-elected 4 times since banning cars. Pontevedra via @WEF
A bunch of untrained, unlicensed cyclists go out for a weekend ride. I bet you can guess what happens next.
The only thing stopping our kids from safely biking from A-B is the roads, not their ability. Today’s @HaringeyCyclist ride proved that, with riders from age 3 to their 80s! If we want to reduce traffic, safe sts for cycling are the only way forward. Let’s give everyone freedom!
Spain's Prime Minister commits €40 million to subsidise e-bikes and expand public bike share schemes. Sánchez also called on the country's mayors to stop seeing the bicycle "as an ideological symbol" and to recognise its true potential as an alternative for urban mobility.
Por primera vez, vamos a incluir la bicicleta en las ayudas al transporte público. Vamos a destinar 40 millones de euros para impulsar el uso de la bicicleta eléctrica como medio de transporte cotidiano. La bici no es un símbolo progre, es lo que es: una alternativa fantástica…
Dublin has rolled out 'hold the left' signals on junctions in the city This means cyclists have priority over left turning drivers on a green light
