Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲

Asking for better provision for cycling in the 059. Do you cycle in #Carlow? Get in touch. We use the #cyclinginthe059, you can too.

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

Cyclists spend more locally, more often. This is always evident at @carlowfarm / @carlowmarket.

We are not Dublin, or London, but the same principles apply.

[Jack Fifield @jackfifield]

People getting annoyed about cyclists wearing headphones is so funny when drivers are sealed in their cars blasting their radio

[Ed Cahill @Edd_Cahill]

Picked up a bike (haven’t owned one in far too long) in the excellent @AltitudeIreland today, specifically to take advantage of the impressive safe cycling infrastructure being installed by @Carlow_Co_Co

@leeomurchu You follow the path taken by the man in hi vis.

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

It can be done.

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

@transportkev Honestly, I’m not sure. The left turn leads on to a classic murderstrip at the minute so not as safe to continue left as the design implies

[John Holland @holland_john1]

Fun, safe, family friendly 7km cycle event in Portarlington on Saturday 30th April at 2pm, start & finish point at Solas Eco Garden Centre (rear/Lough Gate entrance).
All welcome to attend to highlight the desire and need for safer cycling #CriticalMass

[Ireland Air Quality Alerts @QualityAlerts]

The air quality sensor in #Carlow Town recently reported fine particulate levels of 66µg/m³. This is one observation but it would be a high level for a 24 hour mean. Check the graph for more information https://t.co/uunzwHmSgN

From talking to children

🚳no cycle lanes
💨Irish drivers

[Conor Pope @conor_pope]

Can I ask those of you who never cycle what are the barriers to you getting on a bike ? And what would it take to convince you that two wheels are better than four when it comes to getting from A to B (as long as the distance is not wildly prohibitive)?

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

It is raised!

[Noel on an island @PwsNoel]

@CyclingCarlow @Carlow_Co_Co Is this a raised cycle route?
If not surely some form of delineation would be required.
Where in Carlow us this?

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

The R448, Hanover St!

[Hugh McCarthy @HughCycleDesign]

@CyclingCarlow @Carlow_Co_Co looks great! What road is this?

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

Amsterdam, Copenhagen or Carlow?

Big shout out to @Carlow_Co_Co for this infrastructure 🙌🙌🙌

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

For the record, that’s smaller than Carlow.

[Gone to Bluesky @IrishCycle]

This from the Dutch town of Bilthoven (population: 20,000) which in recent years has made its streets more people-friendly:

[Urban Cycling Institute 🚲  @fietsprofessor]

'All options on the table to reduce the burden of increased gas prices.'

Really?

[Connor @irish2witter]

@MartinaCallanan @GreenSchoolsIre @dublincycling @CorkCyclingCrew @GalwayCycling @LimerickCycling @CyclingDundalk @dlrcycling @SouthDubCycling @NavanCycling @CyclingCarlow We had our own first time new member to the #andshecycles team yesterday 🥰

If any of ambassadors interested, would help organise a few "back on your bike" events for communities in North Dublin

[💜💛WexBUG (Wexford Bicycle User Group)💜💛🇮🇪 @WexBug]

This was part of a presentation I gave to the Transport SPC at @wexfordcoco last year.
These are possibilities when @WexBug & groups from the @cyclistie Rural Cycling Collective mention Rothar Roads.
Wexford has almost 3,000kms of ‘L’ roads.
We could easily do this imho.
Phil.

This is super news.

🚌 IMPORTANT UPDATE: #Carlow Bus Service 🚌

✅ The tender process to procure an operator for the new service is ongoing and it is still anticipated that the National Transport Authority (NTA) will be in a position to award a contract by the middle of this year. (1/2) 👇

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

Carlow Town Park and the bridge is important pedestrian infrastructure. This really shouldn’t be happening.

[Carlow Cycling Campaign🇬🇳 🚲 @CyclingCarlow]

This is nothing short of unbelievable.
