Edinburgh people, could you please fill out this consultation (!!!😠) Telling the council to keep/improve the ever so slightly improved pavement spaces just outside Preston Street Primary? consultationhub.edinburgh.gov.uk/sfc/d3a1db37 Living Streets Edinburgh Kim Harding Spokes CycleCampaign @SpokesPorty

What a difference! As part of active travel improvements on QuietRoute 6 a new toucan crossing is helping people to safely cross the busy Grange Rd on foot, wheel or bike. Plus new street trees in reallocated road space are benefitting the local community 🚶‍♂️🚲👩‍🦽 🌳 Sustrans Scotland

Cameron Toll Consultation The proposals include: • New hotel development • New residential development • Improved and enhanced public realm • Improved pedestrian and cycle connectivity within the site Consultation site here: camerontoll.co.uk/home/consultat…

#CameronToll sits at the southern end of our neighbourhood and was a real challenge when planning our quiet route. Improvements to active travel infrastructure are badly needed. Please feed back to Spokes CycleCampaign on this proposed development 👇

Edinburgh walking and cycling community, could you all give a warm welcome and follow to the newest walking account on the block. They want safer roads for the children of Preston primary @blackfordsafer1 Walk, Wheel, Cycle, Vote Kim Harding Newington Safe Routes

Great 📸 of Morningside Rd station building on the #EdSouthSub 😉 Lets get some of those drivers off the road and onto rail… if only there way an off road alternative nearby?! 🤔 🛤🔜🚉

#bikebus 22/23 starts again for Sciennes Primary on 9th September. Starts at Kings Buildings. Save the date, more info to follow.

More people walking & cycling & less use of cars- can we all agree that’s a good thing? And agree to make it safer to cycle through road planning? (bc cars/traffic are a big reason people don’t cycle). Good for environment, physical & mental health, congestion, & community.

A great thread for learning more about modal filters. We've already got some of these in the neighbourhood - where else could they be useful? 🤔
