Taking the whole lane ✔️ Distracted (singing) ✔️ No helmets ✔️ No lights ✔️ No reflective vests ✔️ Riding in a pack ✔️ The textbook radical anti-car cyclists our culture despises

Please write to your MSPs to ask them to reverse the proposed cuts to active travel funding. There will be no significant shift to active travel unless we invest to make the roads safer for cyclists and pedestrians. Kids won’t cycle to school, their parents won’t let them until it’s safe to do so.

Spot on. Comprehensive pedestrianisation should be far higher up the agenda in our cities than it is. Nearly wherever cars go, cities get worse. Nearly wherever they’re removed, those urban spaces flourish.

Great short film on Paris’ school streets, the phasing in particular is genius (block street then see how traffic reacts before making permanent) & last speaker sums up the blatant inequality of designing streets for cars when 100% of kids don’t drive. Would love to see Glasgow take Paris’ lead.

We should redesign cities for autonomous kids, not autonomous cars.

Cycling is 10 times more important than electric cars for reaching net-zero cities and 100 times more fun.

Active travel can help tackle the climate crisis earlier than electric vehicles – even if you swap the car for a bike for just one trip a day.

Right, I’m off to Bakau and COP29 to talk about the quiet power of these 2-wheeled machines to decarbonise. We’ve done the numbers and you’ll be amazed (Tuesday the 19th) @activetravelengland @defrauk
