Sadly Fleur is continuing to deliberately mislead Putney residents by claiming that the closure of Hammersmith Bridge to cars is increasing traffic in Putney. The reality is that traffic is down on all surrounding bridges since the closure of Hammersmith Bridge. Trust in politics 🧐

www.gov.uk/government/p... Active Travel England’s route check tool identifies 16 critical safety issues for walking, wheeling and cycling - with illustrations. It provides links to relevant guidance and key evidence. There is also a route check tool to identify and remove these risks.

Great to see the work progressing on Streatham Hill. The A23 here has a terrible safety record. Tragically, 3 people have been killed in the area. There've been over 70 collisions in last 3 yrs. This scheme will make it safer for everyone with new bike lanes & ped crossings.

Blaming everything except Wandsworth councillors who won't work to remove private traffic. www.mylondon.news/news/south-l...

World Menopause Day 2025!💛 Cycling through Menopause🚴🏾‍♀️ This year marks 11 years since I was diagnosed with Premature Ovarian Insufficiency (POI) which is sometimes referred to as premature menopause. My journey started at 25! It’s been a long road - but I’m still riding strong.

The Thames Path is one of the main traffic-free routes in Wandsworth, supporting school children, commuters, weekend rides and many more journeys Where it doesn’t follow the Thames, cyclists have to mix with traffic, e.g. in Putney. Recent changes made the journey safer, have a look for yourself

Another busy and rewarding week up and around London, teaming up with safer streets campaigners, TfL workers, and more.   Check out what I’ve been up to this week! 👇

Massive thanks to @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social for showing me the problem of traffic cutting across Upper Tooting Rd from side street to side street, barging in front of people crossing the road and bullying people riding bikes along CS7 out of the way. My heart was in my mouth 🫣

Had a fun couple of hours out of the office today. #HammersmithBridge

Join us for the LCC Women's Network Family Ride 💚 We have a feeder ride from Wandsworth Common. 🗓️ Meet us at the Skylark Cafe at 10:45am on Sunday October 26. lcc.org.uk/events/wands...

Hammersmith bridge is open to pedestrians and cyclists, boosting sustainable cross-river traffic. One of the excellent routes it enables is featured in Jon Stone’s latest video on his 'London Cycle Routes' YouTube channel: Hammersmith to Roehampton in Wandsworth. youtu.be/GRAk1bSHlgU

Look how wonderful Low Traffic Neighborhoods can be! This is the Van Gogh Walk in Lambeth, London. This street is decades old but built for people first yet still has access for last block travel & emergency vehicles! @openplans.org @nyc.streetsblog.org @thewaroncars.bsky.social @nycdot.bsky.social

🙌 In partnership with Forest Bikes, the LCC Women's Network invites you to join their family ride this October! Perfect for all ages, a great atmosphere is always guaranteed, so register today: bit.ly/4nZKMcE

This is not a continuous pavement. This is a standard side junction with a raised table #BurntwoodLane @wandsworthls.bsky.social @rantyhighwayman.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk

Duff Wandsworth cycling infrastructure, an occasional series. Wandsworth Common West Side, the road on the right, is one way against you here, likewise the slip up from Trinity Road to the left. Where am I meant to go when the pavement ends? @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk

Cycling to work is one of the best ways of creating a healthier lifestyle. The health benefits of cycling outweigh the risk from accidents by a factor of at least 20 to 1. Take a look at our guide to find out more: www.haveringcyclists.org/cycling-to-w...

Issue here is, as is often case, not just distracted driver but dangerous conditions for cycling on Battersea Bridge. Rather than blame dos Santos or cyclists, judge should blame TfL, @rbkc.gov.uk & Wandsworth for inaction that means 1000s cyclists who use bridge daily face dangerous conditions. 4/4

Bianca Dos Santos was crushed by a lorry crossing the notorious Battersea Bridge in August 2023. Two years later, in sentencing the driver, the presiding judge has said she "contributed to her own death": www.yourlocalguardian.co.uk/news/2544526... LCC's Women's Network responds... 1/4

Verdict after a young woman's life was cut tragically short by a 'distracted' driver on Battersea Bridge and she 'contributed to her own death'. Judge Peter Lodder look in a mirror🧵 youtu.be/mnRRErh9sx0?... @london.gov.uk @londoncycling.bsky.social @rbkc.gov.uk @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social

Remembering Bianca Dos Santos #Battersea Sadly, TfL have chosen not to make Battersea Bridge safer for people cycling. @marshadecordova.bsky.social @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk #Choices

Wandsworth has plenty space for cars, none for people on bikes. @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social @willnorman.co.uk

Hundreds of school children use the shared path in Tooting Common to walk and cycle to school... and then have to navigate this busy roundabout. Furzedown Healthy Streets have started a petition to make their school journey safer! Sign until 15 September: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Lambeth Car Free Day/ Kidical Mass Autumn! Sat 20th Sept-11am😍 Look back at 2024👏 We have another great ride in 2025 🤩 Thanks @cyclehoop & @lambeth_council for supporting 🙏 Link in bio 🚴‍♀️👆#cyclingcommunity #carfree #lambeth #cycling #cyclinglife #ibikelondon #london

The bike lane infrastructure in Paris was amazing. I couldn’t get over how many cycle lanes there were. The city is incredibly bike-friendly, with countless protected paths that are fully separated from cars and traffic, making it safe and enjoyable to get around on two wheels.

New study: LTNs reduce casualties at junctions between minor and boundary roads by 14%. So, LTNs don't just make internal roads safer, they also make junctions with boundary roads safer, with no negative impacts on other boundary road junctions. 💚💚💚 findingspress.org/article/1434...

There are many reasons we love cycling and safe cycling infrastructure 💚🚲 Here’s one of them: thanks to cargo bikes and the car-free Thames path, this dad can safely travel with three children without needing a car. This trip helps reduce road danger, congestion and air pollution 👏

Seems like Lime bikes don't get in the way when councils remove a couple car parking spaces to allow their use

I gave a speech in Wandsworth High Street about air pollution and the benefits of cycling Stay to the end to see a list of proposals to make the air cleaner and the community stronger @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social @wandsworthlabour.bsky.social @scientistsforxr.earth @londoncycling.bsky.social

They finally fixed this nonsense so it's actually rideable. I still don't understand why it's there.

#cycled this again complete utter death trap, maybe why #cycling take-up for leisure cycling is lower than could be? NO logical way to get round it - on to #WandsworthBridge hopeless. Horrid for anyone not in metal box. @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social @wandsworthls.bsky.social @sebdance.bsky.social

We cycled there today to get to a wedding in the town hall - it is a total disgrace - polluted, noisy and terrible for those walking and cycling.

🚦 Wandsworth gyratory removal scrapped by TfL after decades of delays & promises. A major blow for @wandsworthlabour.bsky.social — especially as TfL is overseen by @mayoroflondon.bsky.social . #gyratory #Wandsworth #OneWaySystem Full story 👉 www.cjag.org/2025/08/26/w...

I live in the borough yet never go to Wandsworth town precisely because it’s a totally horrible place to be thanks to the gyratory. So crap TfL has given up on seemingly anything ambitious

The most dangerous junction in Britain? Our @psimonk.bsky.social‪, @rantyhighwayman.bsky.social & Prof @ianwalker.bsky.social on Global Cycling Network in Clapham: youtu.be/d1BhyZSrZU8 explaining why the junctions in this corridor are so dangerous for cycling & what could be done about this.

We joined the XR Wandsworth cycle ride for clean air! Expert speakers explained the different ways cars pollute the air we breathe (yes, even electric cars!). We want to see better cycle infrastructure, to get people out of their cars and clean up the air.

🌍 It was great to see so many people on today's ride to campaign for clean air in Wandsworth, and to hear from so many inspiring speakers - all wanting to improve our air quality, especially by making cycling safer for all.

Riding for a better future means choosing healthier, greener ways to move through our world. Every time we ride a bike instead of driving, we help cut down harmful emissions, reduce traffic, and make our communities safer and more connected. @wandsworthcycling.bsky.social

An interesting collaboration of developers and hire e-bikes or simply greenwashing luxury flats? More is needed for a sustainable Springfield development: e.g. dropped kerbs, active travel permeability, a bus stop for the new town square and safe cycle infrastructure on surrounding roads are missing

Everyday traffic violence. Pure luck that nobody was killed. That's going to be an expensive rebuild. #Battersea
