Make Hackney’s Main Roads Liveable

NOT an anti-LTN account. We want more roads filtered or to be traffic-restricted eg School Streets, reduced numbers of lanes, wider pavements, more trees, safe.

This- the time is now to act for children living and crossing/walking/cycling on Hackney’s main roads like Queensbridge, Downham, Whiston, Graham Road and others:

[Jon Stone @joncstone]

Hackney has published plans for the long-awaited Dalston LTN. The scheme would remove through traffic between the A10 and Amhurst Road — and in particular create a low-traffic cycle route between Cycleway 1 and Lea Bridge Road (a major missing link) https://t.co/k5nAjMfW8j

London’s low-traffic zones ‘cut deaths and injuries by more than a third’
Study also finds no change in number of casualties on roads just outside low-traffic neighbourhoods

@HackneyOneTouch @Microlambert Does that mean only the Hackney section will be pedestrianised or the whole street?

[Solve The School Run @solveschoolrun]

We joined up with @cities_clean and @MumsForLungs this morning to support the launch of a terrifying new report from @transenv which shows that children under the age of 9 cannot be seen by the driver when directly in front of the vehicle.

[Hackney Living Streets @HackneyLivingSt]

This is the THIRD pedestrian death in Hackney in 2025. The second caused by an HGV on a main road. We need to have safer lorries and main roads that allow pedestrians to cross safely. These were not people running carelessly across the road. https://t.co/XStdtBd24x

"I am Jamal's Dad and this is his Mum. Jamal loved cycling and this is where he died on his bike. I want to warn you this is not a safe junction." Heartbreaking from Hackney resident Jamal's Dad at ghost bike ceremony by Critical Mass this evening.

I live on a cycling route in Hackney and have had a Telraam cycle counter for 6 months. Yesterday, it recorded an impressive 2,441 cycles, despite not counting overlapping cyclists or tracking at night.

Provide people with safe routes to cycle, the results speak for themselves

@hackneycouncil @SarahWoodberryD @JoeWalkerUK @TfL @TheBenyonEstate @willnorman @Semakaleng @LoveDeBeauvoir @mayorofhackney A10 #pavementparking continues near schools 14th April - please enforce @TfL Thank you

[Parents’ Air Quality and Road Safety Group at HNPS @AirRoadsHnps]

Continuing Wednesday 9th April 2025, a lot of people are trying to help now so thank you @hackneycouncil @SarahWoodberryD @JoeWalkerUK @TfL @TheBenyonEstate @willnorman @Semakaleng - a bike hoop or bollard to ‘close the gap’ seems like the quickest fix to stop #PavementDriving ?

[Parents’ Air Quality and Road Safety Group at HNPS @AirRoadsHnps]

Vehicles mounting and driving over @TfL curb continues to be a problem behind Hackney New Primary. Please can @TfL work with @hackneycouncil and @SarahWoodberryD @JoeWalkerUK by adding another bike hoop or bollard to close this gap? Or tree @TheBenyonEstate or @hackneycouncil 🙏

Is this photographic evidence sufficient to issue a penalty notice?

[London Cycling Campaign @London_Cycling]

📢 We're calling on the Mayor and Westminster to show some leadership, and create much-needed cycle routes for a better West End, but we need your help!

Take the action and make sure cycling isn't ignored when it comes to Oxford Street... ⬇️

[Jon Burke 🌍 @jonburkeUK]

The moment a Low Traffic Neighbourhood goes in, drivers who want to rat run through your street will start shouting that ‘the old and disabled can’t cycle!!!’.

As Zwolle, Netherlands, clearly shows, segregated cycling and LTNs *increase* freedom for those with mobility issues.

[Bob From Accounts 🚲 @BobFromAccounts]

'Paris has already introduced specific parking charges for SUVs. Drivers of these vehicles now have to pay triple the amount of those who drive regular cars'

Hopefully coming to London soon

No, these monsters must be stopped.

It was amazing playing under the blossom today at #EnfieldRoadPlayStreet. Thank you to volunteers, all the kids and parents who came and the children who gave rollerskating lessons to other children. @SarahWoodberryD thanks for joining us today and making things safer road-wise!
