Children are exposed to five times more #airpollution during the #schoolrun. Highest level on main roads & near #idling vehicles = stunted lung & brain growth😱

After four years of LTN experimentation, we know traffic relocated from high car ownership roads onto less affluent roads does not 'evaporate'.

Those responsible, for increasing air pollution exposure for so many of London's children, must be held to account.

Carlos Moreno | IAE-Paris Sorbonne LAist We live in a bustling neighbourhood where our children's school, swimming pool, parks, playgrounds, tennis courts and a wide range of shops are reachable by a quick walk or bike ride.👏
Imposed LTN traffic relocation schemes reduce shop 'proximity'. 👇x.com/LittleNinjaUK/…

Hi Caroline Russell I thought you might like to share the RNIB latest PR on floating bus stops. It confirms they are dangerous to blind/partially sighted folk.

They want a halt to new FB's and existing ones to be made safe.

Profit falls for Shimano & Giant confirm suspicions that the 2% cycling uptake since 2019 is based overwhelmingly on:
- existing white professional class cyclists cycling more often, and
- increased frequency of Deliveroo e-bike trips to service those wfh.

Haringey Council Mike Hakata You say you want “people from marginalised groups and people that feel they’re excluded from the usual sort of narrative and debate” to join you 🤔 so please explain why your Councillor Mike Hakata blocked me, a clean air campaigner fighting for social, racial & climate justice.

Only their benefit is measured & monitored. It’s an deliberate and active approach to exclude & silence those who don’t fit the narrative & suffer all the consequences.

Walker then says the quiet bit out loud.

'The prospect of a ban has alarmed active travel groups'

cycling and only cycling = active travel.

In fairness there are no pedestrian groups to alarm because Rupert Furness stopped all funding for walking.

They thought it was more important that Jeremy Vine (and some of the most hardcore cycling-only lobbyists the UK has ever produced) helped shape how Londoners move, rather than any representatives of zero-car, BAEM, elderly, farming, high street or disabled communities.

We can substantially reduce car traffic on community main roads & Red Routes, enough to improve air quality, by ending LTN schemes that relocate traffic from side roads to community main roads & Red Routes where the majority walk, cycle and bus exposed to even more air pollution.

Since the pandemic began, the richest 1% have trousered nearly twice as much new wealth as the rest of the world combined.
In London, affluent communities have increased their share of clean air through traffic relocation schemes widening the health equality gap. Sir Michael Marmot
