London’s ULEZ expansion is working even better than expected. Six month report shows significant drop in air pollution. theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Today, we have written to Ealing Council to strongly oppose its plans for cycle lanes on the Ealing Hospital section of the Uxbridge Road. Why? Because they’re dangerous and don’t follow TfL and DfT guidance.

Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Ealing Council TfL What a surprise, Ealing’s ‘safe bike lane’ plans aren’t worth the tarmac they’re painted on. Why do they always get this stuff so wrong? It’s not like there’s a shortage of qualified ppl to ask, who know way more about this than they do. But they refuse, plough on & mess it up🤦‍♂️

It's hugely disappointing that in 2024 councils like Ealing Council still think they can get away with poor schemes that don't follow TfL/DfT guidance. Let's hope there is a change in mindset soon. Cycling UK LabourWalks&Cycles

We're incredibly disappointed that a The Labour Party-run council that receives active travel funding from Labour mayor Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan feels comfortable bringing forward such proposals. It does not bode for travel schemes in London or across the country. London Cycling Campaign Jon Burke is mainly posting on Bluesky 🌍

Another demonstration of how little regard Ealing Council has for active travel. No room for a separate cycle lane on a 6 lane a road. Gaslighting nonsense

Lewis Hammond Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Ealing Council TfL Cllr Paul Driscoll I hope so. Unfortunately he has to wade through a huge pile of car brained prejudice and inertia to get anywhere

Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Well, as is clearly obvious, there isn't any room available here for anything but cars.

Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Ealing Council TfL Ealing Council are the most car-brained council in London. Driver convenience is always put ahead of the safety of pedestrians and cyclists. It’s depressing 😡 @tfl Will Norman London Labour Walking Marky EALING.NEWS The Labour Party Laura Laker LabourList Zack Polanski

Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Agreed. Instead we should be taking space from motor vehicles and giving it to cyclists

We view this as a major test for TfL and Active Travel England. Both are aware of our concerns. If they can't improve the proposed designs here, it raises significant questions about their abilities. We should not be funding these types of projects. Chris Boardman CBE Will Norman

Active Travel England We can't cycle to work in Stockport because you are funding a scheme that doesn't add segregated cycle lanes x.com/WalkRideStocky…

@willbramhill Active Travel England It will be interesting to see what this means in practice. Make Uxbridge Road Safe! and Ealing Cycling Campaign have referred 2 Ealing Council schemes to ATE but we're still none the wiser whether they'll be changed.

Chiswick has fallen

It's on days like this when we're reminded of the importance of increasing the amount of tree cover/shade on the Uxbridge Road. Ealing Council Make Uxbridge Road Safe! Better Ealing Streets Will Norman Cllr Paul Driscoll
