Hi @RedwingCoaches - one of your coaches mounted the pavement and destroyed a bollard while lots of children were walking to school on Valley Road this morning. This is dangerous driving on a street with weight restrictions.

Had a very productive meeting with Tfl this morning re the Streatham Hill / A23 cycle lanes / new crossings / bus stops.

Contrary to the misinformation some are sharing, the bus stops, crossings & protected cycle lanes WILL BE INCLUSIVE & ACCESSIBLE.

Including for VI folk.

I went to the TfL / Lambeth exhibition of plans for the new cycle lanes on Streatham High Road. It looks great.

When I arrived there were lots of drivers chanting “better things aren’t possible” & “let’s never improve anything.”

Construction starts in 6 weeks, can’t wait.

We are dismayed our LTN is to be removed given the multiple community benefits and wide spread support 😔

We ask Lambeth council to reintroduce it after consulting on a permanent traffic order 💚

Something strange has appeared on Valley Road: a zebra crossing… that no one can officially explain.

No @lambeth_council signs. No announcement. Just fresh paint.

No one seems to know who did it. But many say: “It should’ve been done a long time ago.”

Lower Marsh in Waterloo. Pedestrianised and clearly with very chill licensing laws. Even the greengrocer has people on tables outside drinking wine! More of this! A more fun world is possible!

Giving children some space back, denied to them by the phenomenal rise of motor vehicles 💚

The mystery zebra crossing on Valley Road feels like more than a prank.

It feels like a message: “We want safety. We want our streets back. And if you won’t protect us, maybe we’ll protect each other.”

[Sam (Flower Girl) Jennings @flowergirl_lon]

@NFBUK @LordPeterHendy @MayorofLondon It’s disingenuous to say he wasn’t consulted.
We’ve both been at meetings where it was discussed in length.

There’s a lot of support for this locally -those pushing back are wealthier 🚗 owners who don’t want streets for ppl.
Genuinely don’t see how it’s “inaccessible” at all.

Changes to Lambeth's streets are in the news again. Here's our view in the Guardian:

Abbeville Road in Clapham was closed to cars today as a one-day trial and the results were... incredible. Basically unrecognisable
