Please enjoy 82 seconds of freshly-opened Romford Road cycleway - now complete in both directions outside the Atherton Leisure Centre! And there's even more to come. Congratulations @NewhamLondon - one of the most dangerous streets in our borough is finally being made safe ❤️

[London Cycling Campaign @London_Cycling]

🙌 At LCC, we believe cycling should be safe everywhere, and fun for everyone - but right now, in many parts of London, this is far from reality...

🗳️ Which is why, in 2026, we'll be pushing local election candidates to support cycle network expansion - and you can help by donating today: https://t.co/t7FTNvRDxv

🏆 Big congratulations to all of last nights winners at the LCC Awards!

New Rotherhithe foot/cycle ferry finally in action… with a fare of £4.10(!) Plus:
🚫 no concessions/discounts
😱 Works out at TWENTY FIVE POUNDS(!) per mile
💸 Still more expensive than even the peak time #SilvertownTunnel or #BlackwallTunnel toll
This is unacceptably expensive.

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

⛴️ Orbit Clipper is here: a fully-electric, zero-emissions ferry across the Thames.

Journeys are every 10 minutes from each side on weekdays, and every 15 minutes on weekends.

Getting around South East London just got easier.

The splendid new Beckton Corridor and Royal Docks Corridor is starring on @joncstone's London Cycle Routes youtube channel this week https://t.co/cpsiUxfJt6 Congratulations to all at @NewhamLondon on such a huge upgrade!

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

@flyingking2 @London_Cycling @rokhsanafiaz @Plaistovian @NewhamLondon Better late than never!

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

Work begins on phase 6 of #RoyalDocksCorridor, a Brucie bonus that will finally connect City Hall & housing in the area to the Cycleway network, and fix the awful wait times for pedestrians crossing to the DLR. 🎉 @rokhsanafiaz @Plaistovian @NewhamLondon https://t.co/MewfTrvmlW

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

Today we launch our #GreenwayFlushedAway campaign.
🚽😱 384 days since @thameswater shut Newham's ONLY north/south Cycleway
❌🤕 4y of danger, at least 4 injuries—and it'll get worse
🪧💩 Tell Thames: no more closures until THEY pay for a safe alternative

😱 You've now only got 3 days to register for Urban Hill Climb 2025!

🚲 Doesn't matter if you want to climb on your family cargo bike or your folding bike, Swain's welcomes all challengers...

So get booked on and we'll see you at the top: https://t.co/jt38SfIihu

@TransportNeil @rokhsanafiaz @willnorman @NewhamLondon Yep - Canning Town to Connaught Rd on this map from OpenStreetMap's cycle map! The section on the viaduct isn't quite finished yet (protective islands still to be installed) but aside from that it's pretty much done. Also a spur to City Hall/ExCeL/Royal Victoria in the offing 👀

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

What a transformation on the #RoyalDocksCorridor! A 4-lane racetrack for cars becomes a street for everyone—celebration today with project managers, builders, councillors, Mayor @rokhsanafiaz, and @willnorman. Congratulations to all at @NewhamLondon for an amazing achievement! 🎉

Newham schools initiative encouraging walking, cycling and scooting is back https://t.co/0wFunhrxtO

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

@SilvertownTn @rokhsanafiaz @willnorman @NewhamLondon if only 😩 Although we did get confirmation today there'll be an additional spur to City Hall & the bike bus to make that connection safe. It's something, even though TfL's bike bus concept is still fatally flawed.

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

The closure by @thameswater of @TfL Cycleway 2 on Stratford High Street (and even more of the #Greenway) this week is shockingly dangerous. We have written to them to demand it is fixed before children return to school in September. https://t.co/pkEDmEDgcn

On Monday at 7pm, we held a vigil at Wanstead Flats for Barry Shonibare, who was hit by a car driver on 16th June—he died in hospital 5 days later. We were joined by many of Barry’s family and friends, some of whom had travelled to be with us. https://t.co/mb2q7w0RYI

[Ross Lydall @RossLydall]

Cyclist dies after being critically injured on a road in Wanstead Flats.
(Police described the collision as having happened in Newham but the collision appeal boards are in Redbridge, adjacent to Centre Rd car park) https://t.co/9YKPDQuRoK

[Newham Cyclists @NewhamCyclists]

The victim of the crash on Centre Road has been named as 71-year-old Barry Shonibare. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends. We completely agree with their call for speed cameras on Centre Road.

Cycle route connoisseur @joncstone says new North Woolwich Road lanes might be one of the best new cycleways in all of London. We'll certainly get behind that! Congrats @NewhamLondon @rokhsanafiaz @CllrSarahRuiz & all on an extraordinary transformation. https://t.co/RO32Mevq3v
