Half term is so visibly over, right? 🚸 And it has a HUGE knock-on effect on traffic. 🚗 In some areas the school run has been reported to increase pollution and bus times by a staggering 50% compared to school holidays! How were your local roads last week? #londonparents

Expanding the statutory walking distance will only increase the number of families driving the school run and reduce access to schools for families without a car. We have to make roads safe for children to walk and cycle independently. This is how we reduce transport costs.

“The way to reduce school transport costs in the long term, is to first invest in walking and cycling infrastructure that is safe enough for children to travel on independently, as they do in many European countries.” 👇 Our quote in Schoolsweek https://t.co/YI3JffUCyI
