Do you think Camden High Street could be more pleasant?

We're proposing a trial motor traffic-free zone to improve your experience of the High Street and to give more space to people.

BYOB slots are now available on Sundays from 10-4.30. Wednesday slots are still available, but from 12-4.30.

@grocer_on_green @lambeth_council @LambethLivingSt @countcaspargh @ExeterCycling @BiddyBike @ExeterStreets @exetergreens @exeterlabour @ExeterLibDems It's a lovely idea, anything that brings people together when cars are not there

One of our volunteers, Paul, getting started on this beautiful Raleigh M-Trax, one of a pair that were generously donated in excellent condition.

[rideonexeter @RideOnExeter]

We continue to be amazed by your generous donations. Here’s just four examples of what the workshop have refurbished this week. Why not take advantage of the longer days by getting on one of our pre loved bikes?

@grocer_on_green @EXE1940339 It's terrible, the subways are flooded and nothing seems to be happening

[Exeter CAN for active travel @ExeterCAN]

Further to when we reported the flooded Alphington subway last week, we have today been told by Devon Highways that the pump is back on site this morning so the subway is hopefully usable for people travelling between Alphington and St Thomas #Exeter #ActiveTravel

[Exeter CAN for active travel @ExeterCAN]

Cycling and Pedestrian subways flooded and impassable again on the A377 at Alphington Cross and at Exe Bridge. Reported to @DevonCC . Please can we have these cleared/pumped out before schools go back on Monday? #Exeter #ActiveTravel

Police urge against scrapping low traffic neighbourhood, saying it reduces crime;
Met highlights big fall in anti-social behaviour in Tower Hamlets area where council wants to ditch Liveable Streets scheme (consultation ends tomorrow, link in article)

[Exeter CAN for active travel @ExeterCAN]

Apparently the pump isn't there today, maybe our misunderstanding but it seemed it was being arranged today. There is once again no safe pedestrian or cycling route between St Thomas and Alphington

[Caspar Hughes @caspar-hughes.bsky.social @countcaspargh]

Currently our local police service and county council are missing in action.

So myself and a few other Exonians are stepping in to stop dangerous and illegal drivers from driving down roads they are no longer allowed to use.

@UKRobertSlack @DevonCC Does this mean it was flooding the paths beside the river?

@ExeterUrbanist Interesting thread!

[Exeter Urbanist @ExeterUrbanist]

🧵1/16
Traffic evaporation was brought up at the last HATOC meeting a few weeks ago. It wasn't very well explained, so I thought I'd make a thread explaining it and how it applies to Heavitree & Whipton #ActiveStreets Trial

[Exeter CAN for active travel @ExeterCAN]

@grocer_on_green @DevonCC That's a shame but had seen mention of this. We have also logged it on their information portal so hopefully it will be addressed
