What is the point if a mandatory cycle lane that people ( including blue badge) are allowed to park in ? Highgate Hill

Cycling & transport is important to young London voters.

18-34 Londoners say they want to live where there's dockless hire, say cycling schemes & transport policy is important according to new Lime & SpareRoom surveys. 67% say cycling makes London more "liveable" & nearly 1/2 see cycling as a "green flag" for dating. airqualitynews.com/cars-freight...

This kind of car-centric infrastructure in a city centre is a relic of an experiment that went wrong. Big roads and mega junctions have no place in busy cities. A good step is making crossing them in one go much easier. But a better one is to remove them altogether. www.bbc.com/news/article...

“No one should feel scared or excluded in our city…” Why we need a network of safe 24/7 direct cycling routes” Tell your prospective councillors. @londoncycling.bsky.social

After years of us campaigning for a new law, government gave London the power to regulate pedicabs. Today we're launching the new regulations. Our new rules will ensure pedicabs are a green, safe, fair & fun way to explore central London. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I’ve campaigned for years for TfL to be given the powers to regulate pedicabs. That’s why I’m pleased that pedicabs will now be regulated across the capital, to ensure they meet proper operational standards.

91mph, killed someone. It's relentless. Imagine the outcry if trains or planes killed this frequently. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Scottish Borders bus for the win.

Brilliant plans by Islington Council to build protected cycle lanes on Market Road. Would make the Cally Park, football pitches, tennis centre & Lumpy Hill Adventure Playground accessible by cycle to people of all ages. Please support the consultation. www.letstalk.islington.gov.uk/market-road-...

👀 👀 👀 consultation on improvements on Market Road- have your say by 8 March ! www.letstalk.islington.gov.uk/market-road-... This link between us and Camden is embarassing - things can only get better ! cycleislington.uk/2025/market-.... @camdencyclists.bsky.social @londoncycling.bsky.social

Or, and hear me out, we could copy the Dutch and have staffed cycle garages at stations. Amsterdam, Utrecht and a much smaller one at Gouda. They are usually free for the first 24 hours *and* house the national cycle hire scheme run by Dutch railways.

We don’t just want more and better LTNs, we want Hackney main roads to change. 10% of Hackney residents live on main roads, and we want those people to feel the benefit too. Here’s how main roads should be changed in Hackney: www.lowtraffichackney.org/hackneys-mai... #hackney #LTN #traffic

The Queenstown Road cycle infrastructure is progressing well - more of this please!

Only passed driving test 3 weels earlier. No insurance. Habit of phone use whilst driving. Crashed and killed 2 whilst overtaking at almost 100mph. Just 6 years jail and an 8 year driving ban. What can be done to stop lunatics like this before they kill? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Go go @cyclingmikey.bsky.social - and thank you for all your efforts

Designing in car dependency into every town and city is a financial burden we can well do without.

I don't want self-driving cars. I want cars with speed governors and doors that won't open when cyclists are approaching.

Drivers: If you're waiting for a cyclist to pass so you can come out of a side road, edging forward is a great way to slow the cyclist down since it signals to them that you're not in full control of your car and that they need to be extra careful.

Looking for something to do this half-term? Then come along to one of our inclusive cycle sessions at the Ladywell Centre in Lewisham. Open to Disabled people of all ages and impairments, the sessions take place on Fridays at 10:30am, 11:30am or 12:30pm.

TfL report a wopping 43% rise in serious injuries to car occupants. The figures will come as little surprise to many Londoners concerned at the reckless way that cars are driven by some drivers . www.standard.co.uk/news/london/...

Cycling (especially on e-bikes) improves cognitive function & mental well-being of older adults. We need to make streets safe enough for older people to feel able to cycle with more protected bike lanes & low traffic neighbourhoods.

coming up with a new idea called "driving like shit olympics". no more bland, unprovable statements like "california drivers are the WORST" allowed. whichever state wins every 4 years gets a moonshot-sized public transit investment to get those fuckers off the road

Over 8 million ‼️ e-bike hire journeys annually are made in Wandsworth 🚲🎉 We welcome this growing demand for cycling and are pleased the council provides dedicated parking bays in busy town centres. It’s a far more efficient use of kerb space and road space, cutting congestion and pollution 💚

Petition for Safer Streets in New Cross c.org/D2CCXSV8QD

Thank you to everyone who attended the Vigil for Irene Leardini this evening. Good to see members of the press, Lewisham Council and our local MP attend. We'll be writing to TfL to try to engage in some sort of dialogue about the A2. Hopefully we won't have to do this again.

I'm tired of having to walk my cycle the last block home, playing frogger trying to cross the street, and reporting broken bollards. New Cross deserves healthy and safe streets. My op-ed this morning: salamandernews.org/give-new-cro... @salamandernews.org #Lewisham #london #tfl

Friends of Irene, cycling advocates, neighbours and politicians gathered this evening to mourn and speak out on the urgent need to fix this dangerous stretch of the A2 outside NXG station, where a woman needlessly lost her life. Powerful to see a large group on a rainy Friday night.

Last night there was a vigil for the first cycling fatality of the year on London's streets. I was there. Here are some thoughts (no paywall). If this strikes a chord with you, please comment on the post and share. open.substack.com/pub/nedboult...

With the un-consulted deployment of autonomous vehicles planned for London this year, it is well worth your time having a watch of this video from Dr Nick Reed who gives a very rounded appraisal of things from the UK perspective. youtu.be/Vd-7yQCx2xQ?...

#visionzero doesn’t seem to be working at all in #Brent. Not the first this year in that borough afaicr. How awful for the man and his family/friends. @chairrdrf.bsky.social www.mylondon.news/news/north-l...

Why is it legal to sell cars capable of 135mph for road use?

With criminality this serious ending in death, what other crime would escape national news? This was only BBC local. What more must happen for a lifetime ban? Driving is a privilege, not a right. Our culture — and sentencing — needs radical change. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Excellent post about excellent Cllr @mikehakata.bsky.social who has done amazing things on transport in Haringey. At its heart, this piece speaks to so much of work I do day in, day out for @londoncycling.bsky.social on 'political will'. When you don't get visible public backing from leadership...

Irene was one of two people killed on London's roads while cycling in January 2026. Not a good start to the year. This Friday, 6 Feb, our local group @lewishamcyclists.bsky.social will hold a short vigil to mark her passing on what is a horrible stretch of roads that need improvement, urgently...

More than 16 years since Eilidh Cairns was tragically run over and killed while cycling along Notting Hill Gate, Westminster Council has come up with a good plan to keep people safe while crossing the road or riding their bikes along Bayswater Rd. www.standard.co.uk/news/transpo...

Cycling is more than a way to get around. It changes the way cities work, making public space dynamic and liveable. The 2026 Dutch Cycling Vision is now live. The guide explains why the Dutch cycle so much, the benefits and what other cities can learn. Read it now: buff.ly/PUOsTas

The Transport and Health Science Group – in partnership with the NIHR School for Public Health Research – have organised a series of webinars on transport and health. These webinars are open to all colleagues. For more details see www.transportandhealth.org.uk/transport-an...

Save the date 28th Feb @ 11:15, "Daffodil" Marshalled ride from Archway to Hampstead Heath. Everyone and anyone welcome.

Thank you to everyone who came out for the #AlexPretti memorial ride in Oakland today. It was a huge turnout, even more than shown here at Lake Merritt, as some people peeled off since the start at Rockridge BART. @bikeeastbay.bsky.social @ebbp.bsky.social
