We had a trip out to Watbike @ Kirkley cafe today. What an amazing place. They very kindly donated bikes and scooters to school. If you have any unwanted bikes or scooters that your children have grown out of, take them to Watbike. @WATBike @BC_NorthEast @NewcastleCC

The 'Plan for Drivers' robs people of their travel choices, entrenching congestion and pollution.

LTNs and 20mph zones are vital measures that support people to cycle, freeing up road space for those who really do need to drive.
