Blind people were told by government ministers that floating bus stops would be accessible! Please sign and retweet.

Before Christmas please sign and retweet the @guidedogs petition to halt floating bus stops and stop the exclusion of blind people from their bus services.

@VincentStops @TfL @DaveHill @EllyBakerAM @ZoeBillingham Isn’t it amazing! All those cycle lanes, 20mph zones, changes to the Highway Code, increased passing distance for cars… it is time to talk accountability of the TFL management.

New! From @TfL’s own road safety dashboard. There were as many killed and serious cyclist injuries in the first 7 months of 2025 than the whole of 2017. The risk of a serious cyclist injury per journey in London is higher than 2015.

What do people think about pedestrianising Oxford Street? 🤔 🚶 🛍️ Let's find out... #OxfordStreet

BIG WIN today for Hackney from our @UKLabour Government! 🚨 This is a 25% rise ⬆️ in our core funding. @HackneyLabour fought for this - and we’ll keep delivering for residents👇

🚨 Tory austerity cut ✂️ funding for vital services in #Hackney Labour 🌹 is reversing the decline and increasing 📈local funding by 25%. Because communities deserve investment, not cuts.

🚨 In Hackney, Labour is delivering more money for what matters: 📚 Protecting libraries 🛍️ Reviving high streets 🛣️ Fixing roads 🧹 Cleaning streets Real investment. Real change. 🌹

For the avoidance of any doubt the @MayorofLondon has made no progress at all on his No. 1 transport strategy aim “…for 80 per cent of all trips in London to be made on foot, by cycle or using public transport by 2041”. The policy was adopted in 2018.

.@TfL have a gold standard cycle count of 1400 sites across London from which they can estimate Kms cycled per weekday. They no longer publish it, but it’s interesting. It shows lower increases in cycling than their preferred measure.

Will you take a moment to sign our petition? 📣👇 We're calling for safe, accessible bus stops across the UK. https://t.co/2v2tUvJK1c

There was no tweet about changing the target in 2023 because they would have failed to meet it: “Improving the way we monitor cycling”! @Willnorman found a way of increasing the journeys by 60% in 2023. He now has an easier target for 2030.

.@Gails_Bakery seem to think they own the pavement. In fact it’s public highway and @hackneycouncil has banned A-boards on the public highway for years and they don’t issue A-board licenses. Do object to application 2025/2397

Is this the same @ZoeGarbett and @hackneygreens that ran such a fraudulent campaign against a longstanding, but inactive friendship twinning arrangenment between Hackney and Haifa for party political point scoring purposes?

Here is @willnorman and his fit young mates having a great time of it, but knowing there are blind people throughout London he is excluding from bus services that are vital to them. Shame on Will!

Dear @Brenda_Dacres @LouiseKrupski @willnorman, how are blind people supposed to use these bus stop bypasses when they can’t see or hear cycles? You have excluded the blind people who need the buses because then can’t cycle or drive from your bus network.

Employing cycle fanatics to run streets policy for London has been a disaster. There’s nothing amazing about introducing two-way cycle tracks into cities and degrading the city’s street environment and bus networks.

The final deception of the cycle lobby on floating bus stops (and others too scared to call them out) is to say design can fix it. They have had a decade to come up with something that works and they are nowhere near close to them being inclusive.

@theJeremyVine @LBofHounslow @katherinedunne @HounslowCycling @_Dermatologist @ChiswickW4 @TheChiswickCal Yes. Here's the but. Those floating bus stops are a disaster, I've had to install lights and reflective stickers on our newborn babies buggy as people aren't paying attention. As a cyclist myself I think everyone in W4 needs to do a cycling proficiency test.
