NEW: 50+ transport and health groups have written to the Government calling for clear targets in the upcoming Cycling & Walking Investment Strategy 3, as well as a comprehensive plan for a national active travel network, matching the long-term strategic focus given to roads.

Spin up multi-node jobs quickly and move from experiment to production with ease.

A fact about life

“Moving to a situation where cars are not considered the fastest and most convenient mode of transportation will take ambition and imagination. But the alternative is a very expensive dependency, which clogs up the UK economy.” https://t.co/7aXvkzSPaY

Just as you thought food delivery companies couldn't inflict any more misery on society: Instead of using lowly-paid gig economy contractors to deliver groceries, they're replacing humans with robots, who, in turn, force humans off the pavement into road traffic.

Watch live at 4:30 today as we co-host an event with the @APPGCW on the impact of pavement parking 5 years on from the Govt consultation 🚴🚶 Chair: @FabianLeedsNE Feat. speakers @livingstreets @TransportForAll @guidedogs @Tanni_GT @BlindDad_Uk

Through a tech bro lens this is a bug that needs fixing (even though the actual bug is large vehicles in congested cities, AV or not). For a visually impaired pedestrian trying to cross a side street, it’s an absolute disaster.

It's wild, given all we know about decarbonisation, what gets labelled worthy and what gets labelled indulgent. Source: https://t.co/XBspoPssaU You might like to read HMRC's own assessment of the scheme, which is very positive:

Compare and contrast the language. £3,750 EV grant on a £35k car: ‘helping families’. Cycle to Work: ‘subsidising leisure’. And yet cycling delivers TEN TIMES the impact of electric cars for reaching net zero. It’s almost like narrative, not data, is driving policy.

Aideen’s story has sparked an overwhelming response, showing the real impact that pavement parking has on people’s daily lives across the UK. This is why we are campaigning to end pavement parking. https://t.co/bhzZHOKT27

“As a mum and a wheelchair user, pavement parking puts me and my children in danger every day. I don’t understand why drivers think they can block pavements — they’re for pedestrians.” - Aideen, campaigner Join our campaign against pavement parking https://t.co/reR2rAQIlC

I would like to apologise for where I referred to “workers” above. The delivery companies fought in the Supreme Court that they were not workers, entitled to minimum pay, a safe working environment and holidays, because they could substitute their labour.

We are living in a real-life episode of Black Mirror: an app dispatches workers, monitors their every move, while riders - some using rented identities - risk abuse, exhaustion and invisibility. “We are a very modern kind of slave.” https://t.co/lpmpYFpaoE

More about the ad here:

Car brand BYD's new SUV ad pokes fun at people walking and cycling, comparing them to Horse & Carts. It joins a long list of car ads that sell a false promise of convenience and aspiration while punching down at sustainable transport modes. So I made it a bit more realistic...

Strange thing to happen when travelling at 20mph.

RBKC thought about fixing this dangerous junction four years ago but drivers kicked up a fuss about a banned turn so they didn't... and in the intervening period there have been 25 (!) casualties there https://t.co/oX7TdY4V0g

An article in the Financial Times argued that Britain should “fall in love with cars again” and invest in more motorways. Here’s why we the economic argument is flawed and why we should not, by @chaluny https://t.co/MtIUsrzAH2
