We've pedestrianised parts of Bedford Place to support our businesses through Covid-19. We're continuing to work closely with businesses in the area and, together with @SustransSouth, we've created a series of videos to give a snapshot of what some of these make of the scheme ๐
๐ Today we're announcing our Green Transport Recovery Plan ๐which outlines how we will:
1) Support social distancing โก๏ธ help people to stay safe as travel rates increase ๐๐
2) Support active travel โก๏ธ help people to walk and cycle following a rise in active travel ๐ถโโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ (1/4)
@JohnParkin28 @RantyHighwayman John we have rolled out several treatments now in Southampton, I've asked our cycle campaign to get in touch, and our local sustrans have lots of contacts
@TogetherPangea you muppets! why aren't you going to drop into @joinerslive at Southampton when you are in the uk?? stay one more day - promise it will be worth it!!!
Cyclists arenโt the โscourge of the streetsโ. They are mothers, fathers, grandparents and children all doing their bit to make Britain a healthier, greener and more liveable place.
Share this video from @Chris_Boardman to help us make our message loud and clear to @channel5_tv
@RantyHighwayman how awesome would it be to have some national guidance for local authorities instead of xxx suppliers and yyy consultants recommending products
@RantyHighwayman @wfcouncil Are cyclists limited to going only on the all red ped phase? (meaning they don't get to go at the same time as the straight ahead green traffic phase?) if so, is this due to not allowing left turn car traffic at the same time as straight ahead bicycles crossing?
We launched an ambitious ten year strategy in 2017 to transform the Southampton Cycle Network. Two years on we're pleased to report significant progress, with major improvements completed, taking place now or in the pipeline. Full story at: https://t.co/pSFVdgSAse ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ#cycling
@GeorgieD333@SouthamptonCC Pedestrian and cyclists will have a short diversion around the Millbrook Roundabout works in phase 3 and 4. See map for phase 3. We will update the FAQs with a map for phase 4 nearer the time. https://t.co/GuF0aO9VfZ
A no driving zone outside of a school is being tested by @SouthamptonCC
It aims to cut pollution and encourage walking to school as well as making it safer for the children! ๐ถ๐ธ
Is this the future for all schools across the south?
Excited to launch Southampton's first timed school road closure at St John's Primary this afternoon. Now pupils will be able to walk & cycle to school more safely. They'll breathe cleaner air too!
@MyJourneyHants @BikeItJenny
@bikeitSH @livingstreets
@camcycle@GBCycleEmbassy What signal phasing are they proposing? I'm guessing an all red ped phase- this might "reduce" the ped/cycle conflict as you will both be standing still, waiting ages for your turn on a red light!
