If children were included in the consultation process for LTNs, which option do you think they would choose? #TomorrowsGeneration #GreenerFuture #KidsNotCars

If you need more proof of what causes congestion It's not road restrictions or road capacity It's not cycle lanes, or bicycles It's this: too many cars.

A quarter of our car journeys are under 2 miles. When more people cycle, everybody wins. https://t.co/WgJVOlfLcd

As Paris keeps showing the world, the moment we stop treating neighborhood streets as exclusively places to move and store cars, and start designing them as places to live, everything changes... cooler blocks, safer streets, cleaner air, stronger community, & real public space.

It’s strange that we’re still having to campaign to put walking and cycling on an equal footing with driving in transport planning. I mean it’s bonkers when you think about the health, nature, culture, education, community & energy policy gains.

The comments. Drivers always expect everything to be free

In the Netherlands, where the Dutch invest in safe cycling, the over-65s cycle around a quarter of their journeys, while the over-80s cycle around 10% of theirs. Low Traffic Neighbourhoods and cycle lanes don't 'restrict freedom', they expand it. https://t.co/TL0l0HCWpQ

8am, 1 degree C, one of London's finest LTNs and people still cycle. Provide people with safe routes, and they will cycle throughout the year. Shout out to the cyclists in shorts

@blnnnnm @BathRoadSafety @but_cyclists Yes, the statistic is roughly accurate for the UK: official 2024 data shows 1,671 road fatalities, averaging about 4.6 per day, with the vast majority involving motor vehicles where drivers bear responsibility. These include collisions caused by errors, speeding, or

Basic principles for the future of the car in cities: ✅ Fewer ✅ Smaller ✅ Slower ✅ Cleaner This can be achieved with: ✅ Parking controls ✅ LTNs ✅ Road User Pricing ✅ Pedestrianisation ✅ Default 20mph roads ✅ Improved public transport ✅ Segregated cycling

Oh. "the evidence suggests that high-bicycling-mode-share cities are not only safer for bicyclists but for all road users"

A complete, connected, comfortable network of protected bike-lanes is a climate mitigation strategy. It’s a healthy cities strategy. It’s a social equity strategy. It’s an affordability strategy. It’s an economic devt strategy. It’s a smart mobility strategy. Etc. Etc. Etc. Etc.

Cars in the U.K are up to 55% larger today than they were in the 1970s and there are twice the number of motors on our roads as there were 30 years ago, but anti-Low Traffic Neighbourhood and anti-cycle lane campaigners keep claiming they 'cause congestion'. Okay.

When you ask people on this platform how our roads could be made safer.... Every time.

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened —how fast people on bikes “appeared” —once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “#Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t. It took leadership. https://t.co/DJHxcn13Zr

Protected bike lanes help kids get around independently. But it's still common for parents to band together to oppose childhood independence. Sad.

Car Brain has done so much damage to people that it's hard to tell satire from reality.

🚨 Cardiff has made UK history! We’re the first council in Britain to agree to charge higher parking fees for SUVs and heavy cars. 🧵

£300 million allocated for active travel schemes across all of England. £355 for one junction in Hull, which lacks cycling infrastructure Remind me again why, in 2025, the UK will have the highest obesity rate in Europe?

Speed was a factor in over 60% of collisions in Enfield in last 5 yrs. Great to see @EnfieldCouncil introducing new 20mph zones in Edmonton, Palmers Green & Southgate. Crashes fall approx 40% after 20mph zones are introduced. This will save lives! https://t.co/MlPFv1bfSZ
