We had a great weekend of events for London Cycling Campaign, with the breakfast in Clissold Park (we expect this will become a regular fixture!) and several rides (including a feeder to @kidicalmasslond.bsky.social). Thanks to everyone who came out!

Worth supporting. Even if you never step foot in Tower Hamlets, if you like the idea of TfL not pointlessly burning money, this should be of interest! The precedent set by the previous decision is when TfL agrees a plan with a borough, and funds that plan, councils can't just bulldoze it all later.

If you live in the Well Street area, or regularly travel through there, this is a good opportunity to give input into upcoming changes. Certainly there are opportunities availble to make certain streets much more pleasant and people-focused, and to join up existing cycle routes better.

Camden leads where Hackney fails. Pembury Junction redesign should have separate cycle track. @hackneylcc.bsky.social gave indicative, fully specced designs. Camden show (at York Way & Agar Grove junction) they know how to build-in safety, whereas Hackney wouldn't. @sarahwoodberrydown.bsky.social
