Oxford needs to be more publicly accessible. It should have spaces for young and old to sit, play and enjoy. Oxford is our treasured resource let’s make the most of it.

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.

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?

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

It's that time of year when drivers de-ice, idle, and warm up their cars for 10 minutes before driving their kids to school less than 10 minutes away.
The average catchment area in London is 1-2km

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.

Are buses underappreciated?
£2 (currently) to go anywhere in the city. Don't have to drive it yourself so can use your phone or do whatever you want. Don't have to pay to park. Take as long as you want and then pay £2 to get home. Even has free WiFi and USB ports!

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 @OxfordshireCC will never work without enforcement. Where is @tvprp @matthew_barber ?

On Broad Street: “What other historic European city would use one of its most iconic streetscapes as a car park? Oxford did until we changed it.”
“Change isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. Day-to-day pressures come and go. The vision does not.”

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.

Traffic.
It's *traffic* which causes gridlock. Not children cycling safely to school.
It's *traffic* which slows down bus journeys. Not children cycling safely to school.
It's *traffic* which destroys businesses. Not children cycling safely to school.
