positive and technical stuff about active travel

[@bricycle @bricycle]

Positive and Technical is a 326 page 60mb document containing some of my favourite active-travel iinfrastructure photo tweets from the past 10 years. Some big moments are chronicled for those who care about that sort of thing. https://t.co/toyLLk9jRf

People-friendly streets make for prosperous societies 🏢👨‍🦼🌳🚶‍♀️🏪

We speak with businesses in Sheffield to see how the city’s pedestrianisation projects are creating places that locals want to spend time and money in 👇

[Active Travel England @activetraveleng]

85% of people in England support active travel and would like to do more. Today, we’ve released new guidance for councils to help them design more school streets, which make walking and cycling to school safer and more enjoyable for all 👩‍🦽🚲🚶‍♂️

@dressrdelivery @YorkCycle @Bradford_TandA @WestYorkshireCA @WorthVllyChamp @activetraveleng We may not reply but we do discuss things with the relevant authority. Wouldn't be right of us to discuss scheme designs without the designers involvement.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@Clivedurdle On it with that one.

What an incredible turnout!💚 With over 300 registrations and a fantastic line-up of global speakers, we discussed the essential role of walking and cycling in addressing climate change, health and equity challenges.

@Clivedurdle Yes we routinely look at footway quality.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@RantyHighwayman I like to think of them as clogged active travel arteries.

Graph of the day from this doc, which IMO is well worth a read. Interesting to see methodology of outliers on traffic incidents and air pollution. PA benefits are obvious slam dunk for AT. https://t.co/uJyn4RnEVO

@ShamrockSoup Here's one in Kingston. That one was in the Netherlands. New Malden Path.

Bat friendly lighting in a bollard. Why? Just because I love them.

@carltonreid Nicest guy in the business and total legend.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@LeicsCountyBike Sounds good. Let me look into it.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

When they talk about this country as being a walking and cycling paradise, they ain't kiddin. Cycle path, footpath, greening, and windmills. ❤️ 🇳🇱 back to blighty now to build more of this 🚶‍♀️♿️ 🚲🇬🇧

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@CardiffSpinster Not that great to be honest.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

Bikes are guests. Pedestrian priority path.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@CameronCMurray 10 days max to sort it.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@RantyHighwayman It's a bit more of a standard deal in rural areas. Even with big flows. Agree about the network approach in cities and towns though.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

After two weeks checking out rural 🇳🇱 I have become a fan of no centre line and advisory cycle lanes in a 2m 3m 2m layout. Pic shows a centre line being removed to accommodate this slow passing and overtaking arrangement. It is not ideal but cheap and effective in remote places.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@Microlambert Looks good to go to about 2k but seen it on 4k a day roads and more here.

[@bricycle @bricycle]

@carlashton7 Ooh that's a good one. I might chase you about stats on that.
