New figures show the Silvertown cycle bus is being used by 100-150 cyclists a day. That’s about 2 per bus average. Free for 3 years. Other data from Tfl shows increase in bus use and decrease in congestion. (Not unexpected considering both now tolled)

And the organisers are looking for a local caterer or community group that wants to provide tea and coffee to a few thousand people. Get in touch if you think you can do that!

‘Cutty Sark DLR's escalators will be replaced, @TfL promises’ but one of our campaign leads, Maureen O’Mara says: ‘We want details of the timetable and the budget. No more promises telling us that things are going to go better.’ https://t.co/d7E8VssufN via @greenwich_wire.

@SE7Potter @Royal_Greenwich Hi Fiona - you might not be aware but M25 closed anti clockwise at J29, Dartford crossing has massive tailbacks and so drivers are diverting to Blackwall Tunnel. Similar to the gridlock we get when Blackwall Tunnel closes and drivers flood all our residential streets.

Yes, the big ‘anchor’ shop at the Royal Standard is closing for a 2 month refit. No more roof leaks! But you’ll find everything you need at the other shops: fruit and veg, meats, flowers and cards and gifts, pet supplies, bread and treats. Support your independent traders, please
