Improvement of active transport networks is also integral & cross-industry working will help us implement these solutions. Landscape architects are uniquely positioned to facilitate this.

✨Retweet✨ if you think @BorisJohnson and @KwasiKwarteng should stop the new CAMBO oil field being approved because we don't need a new oil field creating pollution equal to 18 coal fired power plants running until 2050.

The whole thing stinks.
This Government’s incompetence, its cronyism, its ideological obsession with outsourcing and rip-off privatisation has undermined our NHS and put lives at risk.

They help dissuade people from using a car for journeys that could be walked or cycled.
They enable people to still drive when they need to.
