🎉 Huge congratulations to Friends of Lostock Park for achieving Outstanding - Level 5 in the @The_RHS It’s Your Neighbourhood Awards! Your dedication to creating a greener, thriving Trafford is truly inspiring.
@theInfraPM@CHAIRRDRF Only hear good things from people attending those courses.
Ps: They could install 24/7 permanent average speed cameras to govern speeds along that section and many more roads.
Making more foolish/dangerous drivers attend those courses, can only be a good thing!
@HarryHamishGray @TraffordCouncil@ManCityCouncil could continue the bi-directional along Chester Rd up to City Rd.
With less traffic, Chester/City Rd junction should be a cyclops
City Rd to Chorlton Rd forms a good link.
@Independent Regular retesting (at least every 5yrs) on the highway code and a 30min driving assessment after each 10yrs.
Speed limiters and black boxes compulsory on all new drivers, (regardless of age) for first year, unless proven unsafe.
Done.
Trafford's Walking, Wheeling & Cycling forum returns on Monday 10th March - 6pm for 6.30pm at Stretford public hall. If there is anything you would like to see discussed at the meetings please send them to [email protected]

On Friday I joined Nicolas Georgiou & the @XOBikes team to make Strava Art across London
XO provides jobs for ex-offenders as bike mechanics - selling high quality recycled bikes.
@tfl & @metpoliceuk are donating unclaimed bikes to support this fantastic social enterprise.
@WilliamofKent@tony_eh An "H" sign on the road, typically painted as a white "H" shaped marking, indicates a driveway or access point, reminding drivers to not park in front of the dropped kerb it's considered an advisory marking and not legally enforceable in most cases.
How amazing is this hand drawn picture of #Messi !’
It was drawn by Oliver aged 7 (7 !!!) the son of our staff member Emma, he’s a proper little artist and loves it ❤️ @WeAreMessi@TeamMessi
@BBCNews They should stop putting parking tickets on cars!
.
Record offence.
Send ticket/fine via post, like private parking companies.
Increase fine to cover extra cost.
Reduced confrontation.
We've launched a campaign to remove discriminatory barriers that prevent disabled people from accessing the cycling network across Greater Manchester
Hear from Sarah, an adapted cycle user, as she shares how these barriers impact her daily life
The transformation of Stretford highlights the potential for reimagining and revitalising urban spaces across Greater Manchester.
We want to build places people want to sit down with friends or scoot around with their kids.
@furious_mum@James_BG The poorest don't have cars.
Many wealthier families have more than one.
Happy for the fuel duty escalator to be restored.
In Greater Manchester over 2.5 million car trips are less than 1km each year.

Most Dutch story of the day:
When Jo Goossens was 13, her parents bought her a new bike to ride to school.
She’s now 82 and still riding the same bike. “I only buy something new if it’s necessary”, she says.

@CitizenUddin @IanMSpencer @metpoliceuk Until that, and similar pictures submitted through a 3rd party app, produces a fine for the registered owner.
Nothing will change.
Just takes political will.
@robmorleyuk @domcycling Most beg buttons at traffic lights only turn on the 'wait' light.
Crossings lights are governed by traffic flow sequences.
It's purely a traffic engineers psychological rouse.
