In February 1972, 20 students from Glasgow School of Art greeted Gordon Campbell, the Scottish Secretary of State, as he opened the Charing Cross section of the M8. They waved banners that are as relevant now as they were then as Campbell passed beneath in the Lord Provost's car. 📷 Newqsquest

🚋Talking trams in Coventry today at our #TimeForTrams conference with Create Streets and Landor LINKS LIVE. With renewed focus on mass transit, it's the perfect time to explore how we can make light rail quicker, cheaper and easier to deliver across the UK.

The people advocating for Ukraine to surrender its territory to Russia today are the same people that told Ukraine to surrender Crimea to Russia yesterday and the same people who will tell Ukraine to surrender Odesa tomorrow.

Been thinking about the Ev: 1. before the transfer window it was rumoured that funds were limited. b. Haggling over early transfers then stasis iii. Moyes silent all summer, then called for signings D. Kinnear interview stating funds available 5. No transfers done until sales made - deadline day

Today, children across Ukraine returned to school. In Kharkiv, however, only a fraction of students can attend in person, and their classrooms are underground. For the 5th year in a row, relentless russian bombings continue to make normal schooling impossible in our region.

Over the next months, the EU will decide whether to water down car emission regulations, which currently prescribe the sale of zero-emission vehicles only from 2035 Predictably, the regulation is coming under attack from various political and media actors in Germany. A THREAD

problem with this is that it is skewed by context. in last 2 seasons the style of football changed (i) dyche being sacked and moyes adopting a more attacking style with through balls (ii) grealish being injured which (eventually) resulted in a switch to playing the ball in front of him.

Something reminded me that a few months ago I prepared a few graphics about the problem of "feeder" suburban bus service for a medium-sized city tram network (e.g., Zurich, Strasbourg, or Bologna), so I'm going to share and discuss them here (everything to procrastinate on annoying academic tasks).

“We took the children off the roads. In 1971, 80% of seven and eight year olds got to school on their own. By 1990 it was 9%, and the fall has not stopped: more children are driven than ever, and cycling to school still barely registers. We did not defeat the danger. We surrendered to it.”

Absolute clown show, if the club allow moyes to force out JOB then it shows there's no long-term strategic responsibility. Don't blame JOB at all, sidelined under dyche in some mad power play then same under moyes. Should've been straight to centre half the second Branthwaite got injured last season

Pedestrian-friendly side road junctions online masterclass. Robert Weetman and Mark Philpotts are excited to launch their first two-day online workshop exploring their pioneering work on pedestrian-friendly side-road junctions. Mondays 19th & 26th October 2026. 1/2

A diagram with a blue triangle on its side pointing to the right and a purple triangle on its side pointing to the left, under the blue one. The blue one says “quality for pedestrians, and the purple one says “proportion of pedestrians excluded”.

The blue one is at the top and stretches across the page. The purple one stretches about 2/3 across from the right and there is a vertical dotted line going up and down at the apex.

To the left of the dotted line, the words “pedestrian friendly” sits between a left/ right arrow and underneath, it says “Drivers are LIKELY to obey Highway Code rules H2/170”.

To the right of the dotted line there is the words “compromise design, standard, flow focussed design” between left and right arrows with the word “standard”.

Under compromised, it also says “Drivers are UNLIKELY to obey Highway Code rules H2/170)”

Under flow focused design it says “Drivers are UNABLE to obey Highway Code rules H2/170”
