Any LA charging more (or, even, not significantly less) for a bike parking space than a car space should give their heads a wobble.
“A car parking permit is cheaper!” Cyclists slam “shameful” council for cutting bike hangar subsidy – as prices set to rise six-fold “For all the cycle lanes to encourage people to cycle, and then raise the price, I can’t afford it frankly” https://t.co/qeJyzkbAOd

It's turned hot, so the people who were idling their car engines to stay warm in the cold are now idling their car engines to stay cool. 🤷

'Pedestrians have totally refused to innovate.' Delightfully savage https://t.co/uQ4NiaL2jB

A pedestrian fatality crisis is brewing in the United States, and we need to focus on the root cause of the problem: pedestrians themselves.

To someone with a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Their advice implies the road network is the only transport network. It should be about finding alternatives.
🏉 With Wales vs France tomorrow, the network will be much busier. 🏴 Daily traffic increases on average by approx. 15% on the M4 near Cardiff when Wales are playing. ✅Plan ahead & check #TrafficWalesAlerts

Odd indeed, but sometimes people don't link their actions and the consequences. If the majority vote against the consequences of dangerous driving, it mandates its policing and reduction.

It's exciting to see the transformation of streets for sustainable travel. This road used to be my terrifying cycle route to work in St Pancras hospital. There was no need for it to be that unsafe. Neither the distance nor the weather that made it as hard as the traffic did.

If your local map shows every football/rugby pitch, the golf courses and where the cricket nets are, consider who that map implies green space is for. Non-competitive activities that involve collaboration and creativity need identified space too.

Or better, factor in distance cycled per capita: https://t.co/wWIxfsDuUo "It would have been better to link the fatal accident figures with the number of kilometers cycled. Then we would have emerged as by far the safest cycling country."

The Netherlands is the most unsafe place in Europe for cyclists. Over the past years a quarter of people killed in traffic accidents in the country were cyclists. The worldwide average is 8 percent,...

Bad take @southwalesargus -Newport's only a safe place to cycle in the same way it's a safe place to rock climb or swim in the river, i.e. you should analyse risk in context of user group, not general population. https://t.co/Pg6oHMWvCd

Newport has been named the safest place to cycle in the UK by a recent study, while Cardiff and Swansea have also made the list

Question about vehicle #batteries - is it possible to compare sizes of batteries between #ebike batteries and #ZEV #EV cars? Are they generally made from the same stuff and can you say 'x' number of average bike batteries would make 'y' number of average EV batteries? 🚗🚲⚡

Hi @NewportBus please can you present the date in UK format on your app? It is 08/07/23 not 07/08/23 today. This is an exclusion/accessibility issue that you need to address. Finding and taking a bus needs to be easy.
