Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor Anne Hidalgo’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

Change equivalent to removing 200,000 cars for a year, with capital’s air quality improving at faster rate than rest of England

Thanks to our 12,000 members, our voice is heard and we affect real change. Join today, support our work and enjoy a host of benefits.
My @BritishCycling membership has finally ended, as last year, they caught me with the auto renewal, and I’ve now become a member of @London_Cycling, couldn’t recommend them more, top selling point is they’re not sponsored by Shell, so always a good start.

Pavement parking is antisocial and degrades the public realm

@The_Binfluencer @GreenwichCycle Approaches on either side also still very, very grim places to be

Silvertown Tunnel could have been an opportunity to upgrade the public realm and make active travel more pleasant. Instead, we have an inadequate bridge, the Thames Path is still unfit for purpose and Angerstein remains a hellscape. But hey, the ‘bike bus’ is free for a year
Wouldn't say the new Greenwich footbridge built as part of Silvertown tunnel is the most inviting

What a lovely morning for a ride to work. #Cycleway4 was packed with people today with those cycling easily outnumbering those who were driving. Build it and they will come.

Good to see and hope to see many more of them
Pleased to see a brand new @Royal_Greenwich cycle hanger installed in Troughton Road, Charlton in our Peninsula ward - after some effort.

Very disappointing to see @Royal_Greenwich fall further down the @HSscorecard rankings. ‘Talking big but doing too little at present’ is not a good verdict. We need to see progress on traffic reduction schemes, protected cycle routes and bus priority

“It's official: Amsterdam is getting a new cycle bridge over the IJ.” Financing of 300 million has been secured for a long-awaited project to build a 1.2km cycle and pedestrian bridge to connect districts. https://t.co/E8wZOQioOU
