Newham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 29/09/2026TfL are clearly not serious about helping people choose cheaper, more sustainable modes when it costs TWO AND A HALF TIMES as much to cross the river by bike on the Rotherhithe ferry as it does to drive through Blackwall or #SilvertownTunnel off-peak. 1133

Newham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 21/09/2026Construction at Water Lane is finally fully complete! The parallel pedestrian and cycle crossing is now on a raised table—so drivers will have to slow down, and will hopefully give way to pedestrians and cyclists (as they should.) A big improvement from the dangerous dogleg that was there before 👏 1163
Newham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 21/09/2026Disappointing that TfL, when renewing motoring infrastructure, are still doing less than the bare minimum for walking and cycling, the two cheapest modes of transport. See also: adding additional lanes to Bow Roundabout as part of Silvertown Tunnel mitigation, but still no protected signal phase. 040

Newham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 28/08/2026Excellent news that the first stage of the long-awaited Cycle Future Route 7 is open! For now just a few hundred metres, but this eliminates some awful pavement cycling and considerably improves Cycleway 16 where it crosses Leyton Road. Let’s hope the future sections can be delivered faster 👷 120

Reposted by Newham CyclistsBread and Rosie @rosiemund.bsky.social · 26/08/2026This doesn't just affect people who routinely take ebikes on public transport - although their needs matter too. It also discourages people trying to do their journeys by ebike. I'm much more willing to give it a go if I know I can bail to the Metro if I run out of puff or have a mechanical. 3438
Reposted by Newham CyclistsNewham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 25/08/2026In light of recent news headlines, it’s worth remembering that the alternative to floating bus stops is people competing for road space with vehicles that are around 200 times heavier. Bus-bike conflicts kill people. Protected cycleways and floating bus stops save lives. 03211
Newham Cyclists @newhamcyclists.uk · 26/08/2026Cycling means to be safe everywhere, including at bus stops. Floating bus stops save lives. Tearing them out because some break the rules will lead to more bus-bike crashes, and more people in major trauma centres. 2276
