Despite some sensationalist headlines, the majority of LTN trials are:producing stats like this, are heavily supported and sensible councils are doing what’s best for their communities long term future, not pandering to the vocal minority 👏👏👏👏

A cautionary tale of what can happen when local politicians are more interested in identity politics than seeking evidence on their campaign issues. Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea can and should do better than this.

Did you know: 🚶‍♀️more than a third of car trips made by Londoners could be walked in under 25 minutes? 🚴‍♀️ two thirds of car trips could be cycled in under 20 mins? Help us reduce car use or we may have a health crisis caused by our city’s toxic air.

You can tell a lot about a city's priorities by its traffic signals. At this junction, Delft is trialing a continual green light for pedestrians and cyclists. A sensor periodically allows drivers to cross the foot and cycle path. If deemed successful, it will be made permanent.

There is very high pollution in London today. You can help by leaving your car at home and choosing a cleaner way to travel. 41% of car trips starting in the borough are below 2km – switching to walking or cycling these can help minimise pollution.

Fake news is spreading. 🗞️ The new Highway Code rules do not advise cyclists to ride in the middle of the road, nor do they say that drivers will be fined £1000 for opening their car door with the wrong hand. Share this post to help us set the record straight. ⬇️

Fingers crossed the school streets in Sutton will be this successful. Sadly, the active transport boost seen in WF looks to be less likely in Sutton given the lack of supporting infrastructure elsewhere in the borough.

Some good news from West Sussex cyclinguk.org/press-release/… betterstreets4kc does this have any impact on the Kensington High Street cycle lane? Is it likely to impact the legal process you're pursuing?

Removing popular cycle lane was illegal ➡️ Congrats to Cycling UK on their win for #healthystreets🌟 Environmental Law F. continues to work with betterstreets4kc on a similar challenge to Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea's removal of crucial local cycle lanes ✊

Today is the day the #HighwayCode changes! A new hierarchy of road users means those in charge of vehicles that present greatest risk have greatest responsibility. This rule will make our roads safer, particularly for vulnerable users. View all changes: ow.ly/n1VT50HGjSK

👏👏Well done Hackney Council. Reduced traffic and air quality improvements are absolutely fantastic outcomes. Great to see this active travel timelapse.
