Wow! What a great, and rare, picture; Class 27 D5407 passes Dudding Hill, North London, with a truly wonderful mixed freight train in May 1965. Photographer unknown.
@BBCTomEdwards Tom, the ‘blind spot’ is exactly the same size and shape of the ASL box painted at pretty much every major road junction. If the lorry has such poor visibility it shouldn’t really be allowed on the road. Stop painting an area for bikes to use then telling them not to use it?!
Lovely unknown copyright image of three handsome Class 52 “Western” diesel hydraulic locomotives - Type 4 Diesel Electrics came nowhere near to the acceleration witnessed from these machines when leaving #LeamingtonSpa
Protest: Monday 20 Aug, 530pm, Holborn. Help us tell the @MayorofLondon that he must urgently roll out more cycle tracks and fix the most dangerous junctions. https://t.co/VHTbfXyxL7 The delays #mustendnow The deaths #mustendnow
If you can make it to Holborn at 6pm on Monday, you could help prevent another death. We know protesting against cycling deaths is effective: previous protests influenced TfL to build safe cycling on Embankment and across Blackfriars Bridge. Please join us in Holborn if you can.
To guide our next move....
If you would consider investing, how much would you be willing contribute if we were to raise money through Crowdcube - assuming the valuation is sensible and we put forward a strong business case?
@BriggsCampaign The age of the law is irrelevant,it existed, was used,somebody was prosecuted and imprisoned. Rather than working on a road safety review to look at why the same outcome isn’t achieved for 1700 deaths by vehicles we’re whipping up hysteria about a problem that doesn’t exist.
@gazza_d @SpacePootler Ask @BriggsCampaign even though someone actually did jail time for that when nobody ever does time for killing with cars. He’s hell bent on turning his grief into an anti cycling campaign.
Chiswick resident receives parking ticket because his new XC90 car is too wide for resident bays. @LBofHounslow tells him where to find wider bays nearby. Nope: he insists bays must be redrawn to accommodate his car, even if road safety & fire access is compromised #carculture
