The parade of shops on the corner of Barton Road and Kingsway looks so much better now. Cycle stands were installed a while ago and now planters and bollards have been installed. It's a shame though that money has to be spent to stop pavement parking.
Before and after

Fantastic to read so much positivity about Stockholm. A city the same size and population density as Manchester. The Stockholm public transport system would be a fantastic boost to Manchester's economy imho.
It can’t happen soon enough. Half of the population don’t get the life they deserve with this fear! #EndViolenceAgainstWomenAndGirls#EnoughIsEnough Nationwide plans announced to design safer streets as 9 in 10 women report feeling unsafe walking at night https://t.co/sFzVDCk0ki
#PetrolPrices are up 30p/litre and it's no wonder nearly 1:3 drivers is considering switching to cycling for short journeys. Building #ActiveTravel infrastructure enables people to make cheaper transport choices @wearecyclingUK@walkridegm#CostOfLiving https://t.co/MhqqB3QwwD

Bella asked for the 280 bus in Dunham Massey to run more frequently to make it easier for her to get to work and enjoy her social life... and we delivered!
The now hourly service helps connect her whole community to schools, universities, and employment opportunities across Greater Manchester.
Great job Bella. The #BeeNetwork was happy to help💛
In England a driver can be speeding, using cannabis and a phone, overtake another vehicle, mount the pavement outside a school playground and kill a 4-year-old girl while uninsured — and receive just 3 years 10 months for causing death by careless driving.

A clarification that this article is incorrect
The existing infrastructure built last year on Oldham Road will stay, including the CYCLOPS
This scheme is building on that work to expand the cycle route into the city centre
