The A38 Mobility Lane Users 🚴🛴🧑‍🦼🛹🛼 blue route looked very blue on our cargo bike map yesterday, it did 2 trips into town & back: a rehearsal in the morning & a concert in the evening. The #SFEEnsembles #YouthProms was brilliant as always. Thanks @SFE_MS for this opportunity, free for musicians.

“Why don’t kids play outside anymore?”

A sombre & reflective ride through rush hour traffic in response to the death of three cyclists in Birmingham in a month, including a father who was killed last week. They rode in remembrance & to highlight the need for more safe cycling routes. Better Streets for Birmingham Better Streets Harborne & Quinton

A great turn out at today's Better Streets for Birmingham demo in Highgate. I'm getting sick of the regularity we're having to have them though. 😢

What an absolute honour it was to stand with the Yahia family and Highgate community yesterday. Their resilience and resolve is simply breathtaking. Together we will build a city where the Mayars of tomorrow will have the futures they deserve.

We’ve got a ticket to ride…. any train/bus/tram in the WM area today, all 6 of us. An excellent value way to travel to Coventry to drop off 3 kids with the grandparents for a couple of days. The eldest has 2 days more at school, so he’s with us on the way home too.

“When a child is killed on our streets we've failed as a city & when nothing changes we must rise as one to call time on a broken system” It was profoundly moving to see the parents of Mayar Yahia, together with family friends & supporters demand safer streets Better Streets for Birmingham 1/

Is the grim metronome of deaths on our roads making you angry? You're not alone. Our streets are failing us, and this Saturday 27th July we'll be making that point loud and clear near the WMCA HQ. Only action will make our leaders sit up and listen. Be a part of that change.

Every two weeks, a vulnerable road user is being killed on our streets. How long is it until its your father on the way home? Or your daughter walking home from school? Or your grandfather getting the bus? It must stop. #SaferRoads #Betterstreets

A heart wrenching morning. Two more lives lost. Two more families grieving. Two more communities torn apart. Our love and solidarity go to everyone affected by these terrible, preventable tragedies. 🧵 (1/4)

Rode to Cannon Hill & back today on A38 Mobility Lane Users 🚴🛴🧑‍🦼🛹🛼 with family. I fell down the stairs a couple of days ago, my knees are really bruised from it. Walking is still painful, but riding my bike was surprisingly much easier & no pain! Might swap some walking trips to riding this week.

Best place in south-ish (maybe central) Birmingham for Sunday lunch? With good veggie/vegan options too.

We’ve been to The Barber Institute and Lapworth Museum of Geology on Play Day: had fun with various weaving art activities, including imaginative play with a woven “castle”, and playing with fossils and extinct animal bones. All free entry, so even better!

Another Sunday, another family daytripper ticket to get the 6 of us to Coventry and back to see the cousins (and parents, grandparents). £14.30 for all of us on any bus/train/tram in the WM region. This time complete with one broken arm for the rest of the holidays 🤦🏻‍♀️

Huge thanks to brave staff at UoB School who are out in high viz on A38 Bristol Road getting children and young people safely across the dual carriageway as the pedestrian lights are not working. Urgent repair needed. I’ve reported on Fix My Street.

6 months ago, 4 year old Mayar was killed in a collision metres from the park where she loved to play. Now her parents want to create a lasting legacy in name, Mayar Yahia Square. Together with Better Streets for Birmingham and the local community, they wanted to show what’s possible.
