Hello @MattHancock @AlokSharma_RDG. Please play your part in demonstrating Britain's environmental leadership by supporting a stronger #EnvironmentBill. Setting @WHO #AirQuality targets now is crucial for both health & economy. #VoteCleanAir https://t.co/nEPDmtcdkS

@Drivers_London @LondonCycle3 the study report is UK wide, not “in London”. See attached clip.

Bus lanes, the congestion charge, indoor smoking bans. All of these policies brought significant objectors - but experts knew they had to happen because they work. It takes time to adjust but these policies are rarely mentioned now.

The same will be true of cycle lanes and LTNs.

This perfectly sums up how Covid is revealing the hidden issues in our society (from Cressida Dick’s statement today on what constitutes local exercise).

Meant to say “…could discuss with @TfL …”

@itinerantgeoff @simonstill @HanneyDP Missing signs at turns are often a result of mischievous or hostile acts. Perhaps LCC could discuss working with them and boroughs to keep the signage in good state. @psimonk @simonstill
At @camdencyclists we have sometimes posted ‘guerilla’ signs in frustration.

@HanneyDP @psimonk @simonstill @camdencyclists @London_Cycling Gold Standard should include very low traffic roads and dutch-style Cycle Streets. There will never be a case for segregation in those. I’d argue that Judd Street is one such.

I'm reviving this account primarily for discussing urban cycling and global heating issues.

@Knowlesy83 It might be argued that buying small is better than abstaining because things from the ‘long tail’ can provide direct solutions to avoid chucking stuff away. But the delivery has a bad impact. We should be working much harder to achieve delivery consolidation.

@SustransLondon @bricycle @jackthurston @_XavierBrice_ @cyclestreets @DacorumBC The Alban Way is an excellent facility illustrating how good NCN routes can be. Not only good for locals but enables a several longer rides, e.g. St. Albans to Harlington 30 miles without much traffic: https://t.co/rqJtctvGPe

At a major signal controlled jnct. in Cambs I noted that 40% of LT drivers failed to indicate at least 10m from turn, with half never indicating, despite a cycle lane. Police said legal to not signal unless it endangers others! At least it now has advance greens for cycles.

@cyclestreets Thanks, I just wanted to draw people’s attention the PhotoMap’s usefulness.
