Kids who got new bikes for Christmas, "super excited" to walk them around the city that's too dangerous to ride in. www.creativebyrovelo.com/therovelorec...

Despite repeated complaints, a stretch of James’s Street remains hazardous for cyclists. They are shunted into a bumpy sliver of gutter between the kerb and the Luas tracks.

RSA have made 0 submission on active travel safety schemes. They have no expertise on what makes a road safe. They spend time talking to kids about road safety instead of councillors. They should be asking them why they feel it's unsafe to walk and cycle to school. open.spotify.com/episode/60ez...

Dr Vinnie Wall of the @corkcyclingcrew.bsky.social spoke to @jerosullivanrk.bsky.social on @radiokerry.bsky.social earlier about the government's scandalous decision to abandon plans to reform the Road Safety Authority. @darraghobrientd.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/60ez...

Still not sure who did this, but it’s really good advice for cities.

Kill Ave. alot safer for pedterians, cyclists and drivers. Expect full opening at end of the week.

I flagged this a possibility when it wasn't included in the NDP last month. The line exists and is in good condition. Reopening it would have connected Limerick, Tipperary, Waterford, Cork and Galway with Wexford/Rosslare. It would have been great for regional development.

The first 50 bike bunkers have left the factory in The Netherlands bound for Dublin!

Morgen erscheint meine erste Doku. CYCLING CITIES. Es geht um die schönsten Fahrradstädte Europas, um die Gegenwart, aber auch um die Vergangenheit und wie Städte wie Amsterdam & Utrecht so geworden sind, wie sie heute aussehen. Ich freu mich sehr, wenn ihr den Film anschaut. Ab Morgen auf Youtube😊

Nice work from macksigns.ie

Last day to have your say dlrcoco.citizenspace.com/infrastructu...

Never forget, car dependency isn’t freedom. Some might ask “what’s more free than cars?” Choices. Choices are more free than car dependency. It’s not a hard concept. I’m not pitting cars against any other single mode of transport. I’m rejecting design that creates dependency on just one mode.

"Our waters are crying out for a break from the pollution, Irish people [want] clean water, but our voices are drowned out in a world of political wrangling and vested interest. [But] you can’t drink politics." Excellent piece by @elainemcgoff.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

If you're one of those who's swallowed the lie that "plants and trees are having a party with all the increased CO2 in the atmosphere and flourishing, it's all good", please read this. Natural ecosystems ARE vital allies in the fight against climate breakdown, but that can only go so far.

"Continuing to build more roads to alleviate congestion, especially in a geographically constrained city such as Dublin, is precisely the kind of failed thinking that has resulted in our capital becoming the 10th most congested city in the world." www.irishtimes.com/opinion/2025...

Nice modal filter on the west side. Road open but closed to rat running.

Part of the leopards road is now flatter but bumpier!

The best part is seeing what happens when you give children a joyful way to start their day. They show up energized, confident, and connected. This is what happens when streets feel welcoming and movement is part of the morning routine. #BikeBus

“What can cities do to recover from this great planning disaster? Here are three reforms that can help. First, remove off-street parking requirements. Second, charge market-rate prices for on-street parking. Third, invest the resulting meter revenue to improve public services on the metered blocks.“

At a meeting Monday, councillors fumed over the govt's delay of Dart extension meant to serve thousands of homes. “If we keep taking money away from these projects and delaying them, we’re just going to condemn people to slowly losing the will to live in gridlock.”

Is there anything to be said for another blessing of the roads? For safer roads, Road Safety Authority needs to be disbanded Comment & Analysis: To be clear: The Road Safety Authority isn't seeking divine protection of our roads. But the approach it takes of pleading with drivers to obey the law,…

If Ireland's emissions are "too small to matter" then I might as well evade my taxes and eat doughnuts for lunch. Read my latest column about the laziest excuse in the climate debate: www.irishtimes.com/environment/...

A very typical Dutch one-stage crossing. In the UK cyclists often get two or more crossing stages at busy roads. If drivers aren’t expected to stop halfway, why should bikes or pedestrians? Two-stage crossings exist to keep cars moving, not people safe.

In yet another blow for opponents of active travel schemes who claim - almost always without any evidence - that they impede blue light services, a new report finds the majority of Limerick’s protected cycle lanes do not impede ambulances, and in fact some improve access. road.cc/content/news...

This is the Neude in Utrecht. It spent decades in the late 20th century as a car park before being returned to the people and becoming a vibrant public square once again. Your city could do this too - it’s a political choice.

Home Alone could've had a very different ending if it was made more recently.

The majority of an Irish city’s new protected cycle lane schemes do not impede ambulance drivers and have, in some cases, enhanced accessibility for emergency services, a new report has found

We're going to read more and more about regulating dangerous "e-bikes," which are actually electric motorcycles. Why not tell your concerns to the 40,000+ US families each year mourning their dead loved ones, whose lives were taken by the terribly lethal cars and trucks we've decided are essential.

Would be great to see this left as is and see what happens.

Australia has recognised a fundamental truth: that *everything* depends on healthy wild ecosystems. Time for the rest of the world to follow suit, and then ACT on it. search.app/phsEf

An Garda Síochána continue to place the main responsibility for road safety on vulnerable road users. People daring to cycle are not the problem in Ireland. Cars and the people driving them are — or more importantly, speed, dangerous driving, and the almost complete lack of enforcement.

Have you lived somewhere with no secure, sheltered bike parking? Lack of decent parking at home is a big barrier. I worked with the Belarmine RA and the council to run a pilot to see could we support residents in a practical way with advice and funding. #stepaside #belarmine #cycling #bikelife

Shovel-ready Luas and Dart projects delayed “to free up funding for more roads” The Government is delaying shovel-ready public transport projects such as Dart+ South West and Luas Finglas in order "to free up funding for more roads", the Green Party's transport spokesperson, Cllr Feljin Jose, has…

Ah here. Active Travel getting €360m every year while road spend goes up from €1,600m to €2,700m. We've seen time and again how building active travel infrastructure increases modal shift, boosting health, reducing congestion and saving money. Serious leadership would have understood that.

Here’s my offer to retailers: I’ll pay for the bike racks in front of your store. In return, I’ll receive €1/$1 from you for every customer with a bike as a return on my investment in your store.

An Amoc shutdown later this century could see millions of Irish people become #climate migrants; this is something our politicians talking tough on cracking down on migration to Ireland should keep in mind, as I discuss in today's @irishexaminer.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

My 4th year students present projects on decarbonisation of transport at 10am. They have lived experience in how far we have to come: I got a 7:20am email from a student whose 6:53am bus didn't arrive, meaning they won't make it for 10am. Happy World Sustainable Transport Day.

In Wicklow town this sunny morning for the Youth #Climate Conference, ‘Our Climate, Our Future’. Looking forward to discussing the ideas in THE LIE OF THE LAND.

The Cathaoirleach has been presented with a bike keep an eye out for him. www.dublincycling.com/cycling/dlr-...

This bus-and-cycle expressway runs directly from Nijmegen station to the university and hospital in the south of the city. People on bikes and buses get there fast without delays, while motor traffic has to take the longer route. Priorities matter. This is what it looks like when a city means it.

ICYMI: “In the era of the climate crisis, politicians campaigning against bike-lanes aren’t fit for office.”— @taylornoakes.com in @cultmtl.com Also in an era of worsening urban traffic, pollution, city noise, exploding public costs, competition among cities, & not nearly enough space in cities.
