Thank you to Patrick Harvie 🇪🇺🌈 for being a champion for #cycling whilst Minister for Active Travel. During his tenure we have seen solid progress for cycling inc. significant boosts to funding and a much improved strategy.
We call on Fiona Hyslop to build on these foundations.

Response from Scottish Greens in Parliament to SNP ditching Bute House Agreement.

Greens furious at the end of the Bute House Agreement

We are sad to see the SNP pull out of their agreement with the Scot Greens as the #ButeHouseAgreement included positive commitments for #cycling .
We now call on The SNP to renew these commitments especially the promise to spend 10% of the transport budget on active travel.

One of the SNP policies designed to make up for scrapping of climate target is integrated ticketing for public transport. This is a great idea. Just as it was the last 5 times it was promised - my @theScotsman column today.

We have vibrant green signage on our trains to highlight cycle storage carriages. Accessible carriages have colourful light blue signage.

Well done to everyone who did #SafeStreetsNow rides and protests yesterday! I didn’t get it together to organise anything this time, but have been enjoying all the posts. Look at this!

Let’s have car-free routes like this through every town and city. Imagine!

Governments in UK are going backwards on climate action at a time it's needed most. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

The Tortoise and the Hare.

Today Scottish Government announced plans to weaken climate laws, axing the 2030 emissions reduction target. While every Scottish Parliament party has a role to play Scottish Government cannot duck responsibility.

Our climate promises are broken - First Minister get Scotland’s climate commitments back on track.

Scottish Government must accelerate climate ambition after 2030 target scrapped.

Read quote from Sarah McMonagle urging action from Scottish Government to ensure that 'everyone can get around in a climate-friendly way by walking, cycling or using public transport.

Profoundly depressing. What's the use of only having 20mph outside a school, if the aim is for children to walk, cycle or scoot *FROM HOME* *TO SCHOOL* in safety? bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-…

Scottish Government goes from hero to zero on climate change (I don't mean zero climate emissions)

Fantastic video from London Cycling Campaign

Great new active travel link at Gourock opened.
Was good to be part of this ribbon cutting ceremony (can you spot me in the video) and then showing the Minister the Inverclyde Bothy at Gourock station run by Cycling UK in Scotland.

Thank you to Minister for Active Travel Patrick Harvie 🇪🇺🌈 for visiting us at our Inverclyde Bothy at Gourock Station.
He heard about the work we do enabling people to cycle and met volunteers who led a health walk this morning.
