🛣 Pleased to see Bradford-Shipley Travel Alliance raising questions about the polluting impacts of a planned road scheme in #Bradford. #AirPollution

🏫 We are really pleased to have the support of Shipley CE Primary School school. Gavin Hamilton, Headteacher: “We support the work BSTA and Born in Bradford are doing to raise awareness of the dangers of air pollution. ...with over a third of childhood asthma cases due to air pollution.” 👍


Great video explaining the reality of #AirPollution in #Bradford, the #health impacts of it, the logical reasons behind the #CleanAirZone (#CAZ) and how more #ActiveTravel is the best solution. youtu.be/a6QatQGXcFQ Shahid Islam Prof Rosie McEachan 🇪🇺 Born in Bradford Bradford4better


🗓 We've got a great event coming up on 12th Oct at Kirkgate Centre Shipley. 🛣 Stepping off the Road to Nowhere: the future of traffic forecasting and planning. Event: fb.me/e/3C6v83ieN



📣 Don't forget it's our 'Stepping off the Road to Nowhere' event this week. 🚘 We welcome David Milner, Deputy Director of createstreets and author of Computer says road to give a talk about traffic forecasts and their bias towards roads and cars.


Inspiring talk from David Milner from createstreets last night. David addressed the failures of traffic models to accurately predict traffic volumes. The result being new roads leading to even more cars choking our towns and cities 🚘 Lots of ideas to help our campaign too!



We are really pleased to hear that this road widening scheme has been ditched. We had serious concerns about the likely increase in #AirPollution as a result - especially as the road was due to be widened right outside a Primary School. Well done Bradford-Shipley Travel Alliance 👏




🌬 We are backing the Clean Air Zone in the Telegraph & Argus today. 🗣 Our co-convener James Craig said “Dirty air is a health emergency, and must be treated that way by the Council and government”. Read more ⤵️ thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/23362654.…
