Cities using, or planning to use, the Euro 6 standard as the basis for their low-emission zones (LEZs) will not deliver the air quality improvements they expect, AIR (@allowair) has warned.

We’ve listened to your feedback about the individuals breaking parking rules in Harlesden. You’ll notice extra enforcement officers patrolling the area & cracking down on those who flout the rules in the coming weeks. @HarlesdenOrg @LoveHarlesden @HarlesdenHen @HarlesdenBot

@cllrjdenselow @kkrupas Is there not something obvious missing there? Reduce through motor traffic and make #activetravel the obvious choice by creating a safe, inclusive and pleasant environment.

Bradford has become one of the first places in the UK to monitor air quality using high-tech public phone boxes.

See particularly the first picture. If Manchester can approve a high-quality cycle and pedestrain bridge over a major road like that, why can’t Brent or @MayorofLondon give us one over the North Circular Road?

[Brent Cycling Campaign @BrentCyclists]

Here's @Brent_Council trying to provide info to school children transiting to secondary schools. A reminder that the biggest barrier to cycling to school is the lack of safe routes to school. Here's a Danish school kid cycling. The separation explains their 50% and our 2%.

@kkrupas @LBOC2020 @Brent_Council @MAsgharButt2 @Krupesh4Brent Great honour for our beloved borough! We are crunching ideas!! As Chamberlayne Road is the bloodline route to the Nottinghill carnival, thinking of a celebration of events along this road, a la Kilburn high rd styled plans, to celebrate the important route it plays to carnival!

[CWC Environmental @cwc_enviro]

Blown away by ⁦@HargravePark⁩ pupils today. So many great ideas about how they can breathe less pollution. Lots of #cleanair posters by pupils will go up outside the school for car-free play street this Thursday 3.30 ⁦@IslingtonBC⁩ ⁦@Clean_air_kids⁩

Camden council will close its high street to traffic as part of its new Low Emission Neighbourhood, which was announced earlier this month.

It will happen during the festive and summer periods as well as National Clean Air Day and National Car Free Day.

Well done Caroline! Greening the borough can only be a good thing - helps improve air quality and of course makes for a more pleasanter public realm; this encouraging residents to cycle and walk more!

[Brent Council @Brent_Council]

Brent resident Caroline secured £33k to plant beautiful new cherry blossom trees down Harrow Road through Brent’s NCIL.

Behind this wall of diesel buses is Ark Franklin school, Kensal Rise: 1 of 50 most polluted schools on London’s worst polluted roads in @MayorofLondon AQ Audit. No wonder. @Ilikecleanair @MumsForLungs @MAsgharButt2 @kkrupas @EllieSouthwood @BrentCyclists @rosamund_ElsFdn

Excellent news! On 5 June the Liberal Democrats tabled legislation in the House of Commons to crack down on air pollution caused by idling vehicles. https://t.co/0LlJJRpEHv
