“Cyclists Dismount use Pavement” OR… the contractors could put the roadwork signs on the road. There is also no sign to say when cyclists can use the cycle lane again. Or just do what every single cyclist is going to do and go around the signs.

“Boss, where should we leave the signs when we’re not using them?” “Just chuck them on the cycle path, that’ll do” @bearswayfriends.bsky.social

Local campaign group Bearsden Safer Streets need our help. They are asking for local folk to contact their councillors to express support for piloting a 20mph limit across all streets in Bearsden - without exemptions. Please look here and help if you can. oursafestreets.substack.com/p/we-need-yo...

Short section of Bearsway has been closed for a couple of days, for seemingly no reason at all. Combined with daft “cyclists dismount and use footway” signs.

If "...road safety is a priority" then why have @policescotland.bsky.social dropped plans to set up an online reporting portal & team for helmet & dash cam submission? And no, the DESC system they are proposing is not a proper portal. You'll still need a police visit. news.stv.tv/politics/roa...

Please support the campaign for Presumed Liability. Presumed liability shifts the burden of proof to the insurance company in a collision, and is intended to compensate vulnerable road users more quickly and effectively petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70... @carltonreid.com

Yep... That's all I want... #bikeped

I want to make a personal request to those of you who use a bike for transportation purposes to start taking more photos and posting them. You can do so much by showing even the most mundane errands with a bike to educate and inspire others. They're often more effective than words. 📸

Bearsway has been well gritted this morning and a decent number of people on bikes spotted! Did see a stupid MGIF overtake at Hillfoot, which would be avoided if the cycle lane was finished.

6 months on from Una’s death and nothing has changed in East Dunbartonshire to make it safer to walk & cycle. The council has a long list of quick (and less quick) wins from the active travel consultation carried out THREE YEARS AGO.

Attempting to rebuild a following here. Wonder how many social media platforms will rise and fall before ED Council finishes a short bike lane?
