Londoners consistently vote for breathing cleaner air, yet negative online narratives about the clean air zone, have led to the criminal cutting down of cameras in outer London and terrifying use of explosives to blow up a ULEZ camera close to people's homes. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

This research caused quite a stir when published, because it pins the rise of disinformation in local politics on the yawning communications chasm between local authorities and their citizens. I agree. bsky.app/profile/gran...

WOW! Car traffic on Sydney’s arterial roads down 5%, hire bike trips up 25% last month, and bike trips on key cycleway now 3 x higher than last year: www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...

Very interesting new research finds disinformation circulates not as facts which can be balanced with counter-facts, but as compelling narratives with deep cultural resonance. Street changers,take note! bsky.app/profile/alic...

What fresh hell is this?

Hello, Earth. NASA astronaut and Artemis II Commander Reid Wiseman took this picture of Earth from the Orion spacecraft’s window, while on his way to the Moon earlier today: www.nasa.gov/image-articl...

I am *obsessed* with the #Artemis2 livestream from the Orion spacecraft. Mind-blowing visuals of our incredible earth seen from space, just casually relayed via YouTube like it is the most normal thing ever... www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Rwf... #NASA #ArtemisII

What do we make of this @worldbollardassoc.bsky.social? bsky.app/profile/corn...

I am incredibly excited for the imminent #Artemis2 launch, the first crewed lunar mission for 50 years. Australia’s Deep Space Communication Complex in Tidbinbilla will be keeping the astronauts connected to earth: www.csiro.au/en/news/All/... (Just like in the film “The Dish”!)

I’m coming to London soon! 29th April is the only UK date for our “Effective Engagement for Changing Streets” in-person program for some time, and tickets are limited. Grab yours: www.trybooking.com/events/landi... 🇬🇧🚲🚶

“Changing a city is complicated, because even the most progressive people don’t want to alter their habits. To succeed, you have to have a strategy, be determined and, yes, accept being unpopular.” Bravo, @annehidalgo.bsky.social 👏 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

“Streets for play, streets for freedom” by @aliceferguson.bsky.social & @timrgill.bsky.social makes the case for a "child lens" on transport policy. Time to prioritise those most impacted yet least considered in planning our streets: Children. Read more here: playingout.net/take-action/...

Thinking about how the 1973 oil crisis in the Netherlands led to petrol rationing, driving bans, parties and playdates on freeways, and the opportunity to imagine an alternative future…

This Geriatric Millennial gay urbanist *really* enjoyed the new advert from Chanel, featuring Kylie and Margot Robbie on a trip down pop culture memory lane.. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohvN...

Interesting thoughts here about dealing with negative responses to change from @brenttoderian.bsky.social but I would go further… If we know reactions to change are a natural part of the process, cities need to be smarter in preparing for that reaction. Skill up! bsky.app/profile/bren...

Great new Streetscapes documentary about how Groningen (NL) implemented a controversial traffic circulation plan, half a century ago, and how it transformed the city into the pleasant place it is now. youtu.be/bgKokpZMFnU?...

En 12 ans, Paris s'est transformée comme jamais.

Can we all just take a moment to admire this photo of my local MP, @kobishettymp.bsky.social who is, quite clearly, a badass.

They said it would take 193 years to clean London’s air. We did it in nine. 💨 London has now met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide air pollution.

Just got back from seeing “Elvis Presley in Concert”, the new Baz Luhrmann documentary, in a packed cinema and - goodness me - what an incredible, immersive experience it was! See it in a cinema with a huge sound system if you can. youtu.be/2s_dCvUgOBI

'The Morning Ride, Copenhagen.' Bicycles were the perfect vehicle for a new generation of painters looking for subjects that would express their experience of the modern age. This work (1907) by Erik Ludvig Hennimoder depicts the new leisured classes.

Fascinating show by Rory Sutherland marking 50 years of Concorde, examining the “fever dream of supersonic travel” and how visions of a faster future were more fun than the reality… www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m...

I finally had a chance to use the new Sydney Harbour Bridge bike ramp. No more pushing your bike up 55 steep stairs! The views are breathtaking, I was extremely impressed.
