This video is from my friend and ex-York resident who has now returned to her native Nederlands. It has many parallels with York and other small cities in the UK which people might find interesting. People+cyclists+cars - can they co-exist? @yorkcycle.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4V0...

We are in favour of proposals for a new pedestrian & cycle bridge at Wilton Rise. Consultation open until THU 18 DEC and can be accessed on the York Planning Access site under reference 25/02252/FUL yorkcyclecampaign.bike/2025/12/15/p...

We attended a York Climate Commission walking tour of Rougier St bus priority route. Members and people from other groups had insightful discussions about how changes might work. Consultation closes JAN 12: www.york.gov.uk/news/article... #cycling #sustainabletransport #publictransport

scrutiny.

Just over eight years ago I wrote this piece for the late Guardian Cities section, and I really don't believe tech companies have solved the issues it raises in the meantime... including, it seems, detecting cyclists www.theguardian.com/cities/2017/...

My latest Highways Magazine article in which I have a pop at the lack of dedicated pedestrian and cycle space on the newly opened #SilvertownTunnel, but noting that this is just another in the UK history of failing to take the opportunity to integrate active travel in large infrastructure projects.

See us today at West Bank Park in Acomb at the amazing Summer Fair! 1300-1600
