It may not be a bench, but this was a great way to get around! Thanks for dropping me off on Cowley Road to finish my final round @EmilyKerr36. Children seemed to find it especially entertaining to see an adult in the front seat! 😅🌸🚴🏼💚

Cue 12 months of IOA press releases to the OM about how all of their efforts to make life perfect for the hard working voters are stymied by the silly county council not doing what they ask. All in order to run at country seats next May.

“There are only a certain number of cars which can sensibly fit onto our roads at any one time” – Oxfordshire County Council’s highways chief Andrew Gant talks exclusively to the Oxford Clarion about LTNs, traffic filters and safe routes to school oxfordclarion.uk/oxford-traffic…

Good to luck the campaigners in Tower Hamlets challenging Lutfur Rahman over scrapping three LTNs. Save Our Safer Streets - Tower Hamlets say the LTNs are vital to protect children in deprived areas from pollution and the risks of heavy traffic.

About 1,200 children are killed/injured by drivers within 500m of a school *every month* in the UK. Poor little Evan had a bright future ahead of him until a driver decided otherwise. Will drivers never tire of endangering/killing kids with their cars? birminghammail.co.uk/news/showbiz-t…

I've just cycled from town down Cowley Road and then Marsh Road to the Marsh Harrier. Terrified by about 20 illegal speeding electric motorbikes. Zero enforcement. Vision zero from Oxfordshire County Council will never work without enforcement. Where is TVP Roads Policing Matthew Barber ?

The psychology of a car driver only counts the most direct cost (car parking). Which makes a strong case for per-journey and very visible road pricing to reduce congestion, the climate crisis, toxic pollution, and road deaths. Yeah But Cyclists

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

Massive win for EU - legally binding clean air standards ratcheted up across EU for 2030. Rollout of Low/Zero emission Zones, LTNs, School Streets & more strongly encouraged tools to get local authorities to within air quality limits by then. eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/dir/2024/2…
