Lovely to be visited by @LBRUTMayor @juliacambridge1 and Transport Lead @AlexanderEhmann at the fair, where we worked with @RichmondStreets to get the walking, cycling, wheeling message out!

It was a joy to attend the @stmargaretsfair today. What a fantastic event - and it was an honour to help judge the dog show! Thank you so much to everyone involved.

We have a great panel to discuss the #ClimateEmergency #accessibility and #activetravel this Monday night at the Turks Head, St Margarets. Join @Roger4Richmond @chucksinatra @paul_tanto @AlexanderEhmann for what promises to be an interesting evening bit.ly/LBRUT25Apr

Love the #ThisIsAwkward campaign! In Richmond we have a waiting list of over 700 people for bike hangars - they simply can't be rolled-out fast enough.
Another week, another awkward billboard goes up in Islington 👀
From closets to kitchens, #Londoners have been sharing pics of the weird places they keep their bikes due to lack of cycle parking.
HUGE thanks to everyone who's shared so far. Keep 'em coming using #ThisIsAwkward

Why are these Londoners cycling more & using cars less?
We spoke to ordinary Londoners about #ClimateSafeStreets & "those little sticks" popping up all over. Watch our video then demand more action in your borough today: lcc.org.uk/climate

EVs are here to save the car industry, not the planet.

Good work, but I certainly hope that you're not stopping there @willnorman. We are concerned where budget for further improvement will come from and what will be done for those outer London boroughs, especially on routes not leading directly to EC1

When @SadiqKhan became Mayor, London’s cycle network was 90km long. Since then, we’ve added almost 250km of new routes, and we aren't stopping there.
This is a vital part of our plan to tackle air pollution, the climate emergency & congestion.

For a better world, we don't lack space in our cities.
We lack imagination!

It does often seem that 'the “single most important issue” is a short traffic detour, not a climate and pollution emergency.'

My blog about local issues in Chiswick traffic changes. "Somewhere, outside the little W4 bubble, where the 'single most important issue' is a short traffic detour, there is a climate and pollution emergency."

When this scheme in Orford Road #WFMiniHolland 1st opened, folks marched a coffin here predicting death of trade on this street. Several businesses here said losing parking out front would end them. That was 8 years ago. This was a mild March Sunday. Change is hard but worth it.
ALT Lots of people walking, sitting and milling about on Orford Road in Walthamstow including sitting outside a pub and cafés. A sign says no motor vehicles in the foreground.
