🚲🚗 Two people on a bike take up 1600mm, two in a car take 4665mm. Time to rethink road space! #SustainableTransport #RoadSpace
Stuck in a #Motonormativity trap? New research shows that we apply double standards to our car dependent status quo:
1️⃣ It exists in UK, US and NL
2⃣ Caused by social/spatial environment
3⃣ People dramatically underestimate support for non-motorized transport
Change is possible!

🚲slightly up
🚙slightly down
🤔but not on track for @Edinburgh_CC car-km reduction target & @scotgov commitment
+ huge #roadspace used by #SingleOccupancy
+ @SpokesPorty data
@MichaelMacLeod1
🚙#SingleOccupancy
Data is in the article linked from our tweet

You are right - it's around 3/4 of all cars!
The square metres of #roadspace required per occupant, compared to #walk #bicycle or #bus, would be scary!
@CyclingEdin @SpokesPorty @SW20Ed
@SpokesLothian @CyclingEdin @EdinReporter @SpokesPorty @CllrScottArthur @DAstonSNP @SanneDD @julebandel @thecockburn @JimDensham @SW20Ed Do you have the stats on how many of the cars were single occupant Vs shared?
On my commute it always feels like it's an overwhelming proportion but I'd be keen to see the figures.

🤩Our May count on #LothianRoad & #ForrestRoad found🚲formed 21.2% of all 8-9am citybound vehicles
😍Adding south & northbound,🚲rose to 16.3% from 12.7% last May
🤔But
#SingleOccupant motor vehicles still occupy huge areas of #roadspace
It also demonstrates how much unused #roadspace is given over to #vehicles, which could be reclaimed for safe #pedestrian space. @livingstreets @transport_north @dft @activetraveleng
A light dusting of #snow doesn't just make the place look pretty, it shows how many people like to make use of streets protected by traffic filters, both new and old!
Walk or ride carefully today, enjoy the quite streets, and let your Councillors know you like them and want more
Cities are creating #roadspace targets. Here's an example of reallocating 10% of your car lanes without reducing capacity for a safer and more pleasant street.

Taking #roadspace from motorists can be politically risky, but in Milan – one of Europe’s most congested cities – it’s starting to pay off. #MindofMovement https://t.co/P7YBDk1tfp
Borough station junction: horrific collision this am involving lorry & 12 yr-old cyclist. Same #DangerousJunction saw a cycle/lorry collision in Sept and years of danger for walk/cycle. We'll be following up urgently on what's being done here for @MayorofLondon for #VisionZero.

@AdamBronkhorst @ShoestringCycle So much weight.
When I was a small boy, this BMW 5-Series was a big executive car.
It now looks titchy next to a Ford Ranger, NZ's most popular "family car".
(There is an element of perspective in this shot, but the Beemer is a *lot* smaller).

Is there such thing as a 'just' street? 🚲🛴🚋🚎🚗🚕🚶♂️🚶♀️
We explore this question and learn about the #arrogance of space and the unfair amount of #roadspace that #cars take up in most #cities over the world in #week3 of the #UnravelingtheCyclingCity!
Photos taken over the last 2 days in Waltham Forest show that #placemaking magic can happen with small amounts of #roadspace #reallocation. Key ingredients are political leadership, motivated officers, and a supportive community. Thankyou @wfcouncil
We said we had big news. Come and remember 'Our Louise' with us. Donations to via

Why do we still have 3 traffic lanes merging on Kensington Gore with no #roadspace for others? Kensington High Street is a unpleasant as ever and it doesn’t improve until Olympia in @LBHF. @HF_Cycling #kensingtoncyclelane @theJeremyVine @London_Cycling @RBKC @RBKC_cycling @TFL
@ragubengaluriga @CMofKarnataka @kiranshaw @BMTC_BENGALURU @Namma_ORRCA @srinualavilli @RevathyAshok @tdkarnataka @tarauk Definitely bus frequency need to be upped by #BMTC to make full use of bus lane along #ORR.
Buslane is definitely needed For a city of 1.3cr human population and 1cr vehicle 🛵🏍🚛🚚🛺🚘🚖🚗🚕🚙 .
there is a need for judicious use of this limited resource #roadspace 🙏
@GrahamKnowles4 @theJeremyVine @RBKC @jthalassites @London_Cycling Agreed, but one can do a lot more harm than the other. The point I’m trying to make is that by bringing back the #kensingtoncyclelane there won’t be so much conflict for #roadspace.

.@WRICitiesIndia to work with #Delhi government to redesign 540kms of road network in the national capital. The redesign will help reduce bottlenecks, increase #green cover, improve #roadspace efficiency #WRIRoadSafety #SaferbyDesign
Today, @govt_delhi and #WRIIndia signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for improving road infrastructure in the national capital and making it safer and accessible for all. (1/2) #WRIIndiaAt10
