We'll give them one. Anyone else? @merseycyclists

@Sport_England @Chris_Boardman A fantastic appointment. Let's hope @DCMS @transportgovuk @grantshapps join the dots and fix obstacles to a healthier country like @RBKC https://t.co/g4jaWXkbdp

Copenhagen 🇩🇰 to transform busy street in the city center into an extraordinary garden 🌳

How can you possibly justify letting this person drive ever again? How?

Road danger is the single most common reason sited for not traveling by bike at a time when we desperately need people to do just that

The consequences of road crime are so great, it is a national emergency

[Mounsey. @rosemeyer1939]

LPL has an inactivity/health crisis, like all UK cities, and every single 'encourage people to get fit' scheme has 100% utterly failed.

Yet here's a video of mixed activity & play that could be mistaken for an enlightened euro city.

"Ban it!!"

Not the future we want for our kids
Not the way out of a climate crisis
Not the way out of a health crisis.

Shall we make space to travel differently?

The first pre-order copies of “Curbing Traffic” are landing on doorsteps, and we couldn’t be more excited or proud.

We’ve written a deeply personal and passionate book we hope inspires cities to do better.

The challenge is now getting it in front of as many readers as possible.

It is astonishing how we designed our public spaces around the car. But it is utterly mind-blowing how society seems to accept that status quo!

Underrated tweet.

Betty is entitled to her view, but it's poorly-informicated: whilst the popular press portrays cyclists as reckless and studies have shown that a red-light running cyclist angers drivers more than anything else, researcherors found that 84% of people on cycles stop at red lights.

@MHowie81 @YouFromTheEcho @alantormeyLD @ArmitageAndi @LivEchonews @LiamThorpECHO @livepedestrian @CarsRuinedLpool Councillors have the responsibility to act in the public interest. #NolanPrinciples. Safe and sustainable transport is beneficial to health and well-being of all citizens; councillors need to make a case for the positive effects of safe cycling infrastructure.

@Kristoforbrown @ArmitageAndi @alantormeyLD @YouFromTheEcho @LivEchonews @LiamThorpECHO @livepedestrian @CarsRuinedLpool @TT_Liverpool Fantastic news @Kristoforbrown.👏👏👏

[James Maloney @YouFromLancs]

@MHowie81 @alantormeyLD @ArmitageAndi @VisionZero3 @LivEchonews @LiamThorpECHO @livepedestrian @CarsRuinedLpool Fact of the matter is this, as far as I can tell:
1. Liverpool has a poor record in terms of providing linked up safe cycling infrastructure
2. The city has the worse record in terms of cycling safety in the UK
3. At least three people (adults and children) are killed every week

[James Maloney @YouFromLancs]

This is how easy it can be - just saying.

Has anyone here got the train to Chester and cycled around the city? If so, what routes would you recommend? ♿️🚲

[Janet Atherton OBE @JanetAth]

Something for all UK cities and towns to learn from here @WeAreCyclingUK - it is absolutely possible to achieve meaningful change quickly.

[James Maloney @YouFromLancs]

@alantormeyLD @VisionZero3 @LivEchonews @LiamThorpECHO I think this recent infographic speaks volumes.
The real question is this:
What is more important? Reducing the shocking stat that an adult or child is more likely to be killed while cycling in Liverpool than anywhere else in the UK or reducing time motorists spend in traffic?

[Vision Zero LCR @VisionZero3]

@alantormeyLD @YouFromTheEcho @LivEchonews @LiamThorpECHO Could you possibly put the Coucil's response on twitter @alantormeyLD? Given the unforgiveable cycling KSI stats in Liverpool, the public needs to know which steps are taken to avoid more cycling-related deaths and injuries in Liverpool. @MayorLpool
