As schools return this week, your regular reminder that the London primary school run alone causes 480,000 car journeys per day. What does your school run look like this week? Let us know!. #saferoutes #cleanair #schoolrun

It can be easy to think of the school run as an intractable problem that can’t be solved. And then you go to France, Bordeaux to be precise, and it’s school run time, but there’s not really any traffic, and everything seems very calm……. #cargobikes #schoolrun #parentinghacks

We joined up with @cities_clean and @MumsForLungs this morning to support the launch of a terrifying new report from @transenv which shows that children under the age of 9 cannot be seen by the driver when directly in front of the vehicle.

It’s national walking month. ☀️ And whilst we encourage families to try walking to school in the sunshine…. 🦓 We mainly encourage local authorities & the government to give children safe routes to school. #nationalwalkingmonth #saferoutes #cleanair

All children should be able to walk to school safely. The fact that authorities are now going school by school, street by street to implement school streets & zebra crossings (if they are doing this at all) shows how badly we’ve let down children. We need safe streets for kids.
Great to see @lambeth_council installing a new zebra crossing on Emmanuel Rd outside Telferscot Primary School as part of their commitment to reduce road danger. Works will be done by start of September. 👏👏 @RezinaChowdhury
