#Pavementparking is a bad habit and drivers need help quitting. Apologists will have you believe it's about lack of space. It's not.

GM. We are going to win. An internet where 4 corporations wall us all into their surveillance state and make us pay rent forever is just incompatible with human flourishing. The only question is how long it takes everyone propping up history's worst billionaires to figure this out.

New Zealand’s High Court has ruled that the ban on new puberty blocker prescriptions for trans young people was unlawful and discriminatory. The decision could give fresh momentum to calls to reverse restrictions in the UK! 🤞

We're working with London's boroughs to grow our Cycleway Network and enable more people to safely cycle around the capital. I'm looking forward to working with @LBHF who, last night, approved the new Olympia to Hammersmith section of Cycleway 9. 👏👏Cllr Nicole Trehy 🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲

For decades too many junctions in London haven't had pedestrian signals - TfL is upgrading these to make it safer for people crossing these busy roads. Good to see the A217 London Rd / Cricket Green junction completed.

Last week we proudly shared the successes & insights of our groundbreaking, Wheels4Me loan scheme; providing free, inclusive cycle loans in our mission to 'make cycle share, fair'. Though the scheme is currently paused while we look for new funding, we can't wait to bring this important service back

“…suggesting that private schools are responsible for around two thirds (67.8 per cent) of school run congestion. To put it another way, when private schools are in term you can expect to see 3.09x more congestion compared to when only state schools are in term”

One of the last projects I set in motion before I left @wearepossible.bsky.social has finally borne fruit: the School Run Cruncher! TL;DR? YES, it does indeed look like school run traffic to private schools is disproportionately responsible for morning rush hour congestion. You’re welcome!

Floating bus stops are a simple way to make busy streets work better for everyone. Buses do not get held up by cyclists, while people cycling get a continuous, protected route instead of being forced into traffic. Safer cycling, quicker bus journeys and streets that work for people.

Improvements in air pollution are leading to brighter, smarter toddlers. A New York study adds to the growing evidence that air pollution is a fixable problem and that health improves when air pollution is reduced. My latest for @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/environment/...

For decision makers, the lesson is clear: effective leadership requires looking beyond the intensive minority and finding ways to understand the preferences of the wider public. In Budapest, when residents were asked directly, they chose a bridge designed for moving people rather than private cars.🔚

In our first few months of owning an EV I was happy to see an average efficiency of just over 4 miles/kWh. Pretty good! Compare that to our e-bike, which I've just seen in our service report: "An efficiency of 7.52 Wh/km converts to approximately ***82.6 miles per kWh***" 😮🤯

Today, I and my partner signed up to be RNLI members, in order to show support for an organisation out there bravely saving people's lives despite the attacks by fascist racist thugs. Eyeing up their old school key chain too... rnli.org/support-us

Delighted to sign up for a monthly direct debit donation to the wonderful RNLI These heroic volunteers put their lives on the line to save others at sea. Thank you.

Croydon unlawfully removed a safety scheme paid for with public money. Rightly, TfL have required the money to be repaid & paused future funding - subject to the council submitting a revised plan that meets the requirements. mylondon.news/news/transpo...

Nobody who wants to travel sustainably by train should be prevented from doing so because it's cheaper to drive or fly. Here's what we heard from one commuter this week. We're campaigning for rail fares to be fair and affordable.

“The progress we’re now seeing follows more than two years of campaigning by Stop Funding Heat, Stop Funding Hate, Good Law Project and a range of other allies, amid mounting public concern over the state of our media” https://bit.ly/4ycHJmJ

The kids are alright 🥰

Road safety is a social justice issue. “The number of children killed or injured crossing roads is almost five times higher in England’s most deprived areas than its wealthiest” … and the gap is widening.

The guardian: a tragedy that demands reflection Also the guardian: but not reflection from us. Our disproportionate coverage of a black, disabled man we knew had reached his limit was legit. We definitely would've hounded a white man too. Promise. Not racist. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

NEW: It was a digital lynching. And the media is never going to hold itself to account for the role it played in Jason Arday’s death. But there are things we can do. This is a practical guide based on my own experience. broligarchy.substack.com/p/a-digital-...

The Guardian borrowed freely from attack lines against Jason Arday carried by the Mail, Times, Telegraph and elsewhere, says Jo Maugham: https://goodlaw.social/6xwp

Fatalities and casualties reduced by 34% on London roads after the speed limit was lowered to 20 mph. Are drivers just more obedient in London than elsewhere? No! It’s the speed cameras!

Cycling is social. Design for it.

Since everyone’s arguing about speed cameras, let’s keep a couple facts in mind: 1) Research show that camera enforcement is much more popular than the media implies – in suburbs as well as cities. Lesson: Don’t conflate a few angry car owners with “public opinion.” (cont'd)

In a more rational world we'd be having a conversation about motor manufacturers paying reparations for all the avoidable harm they've created, not delaying the marginal de-grotification of their business model because they'd find it inconvenient

Dissapointing - 7 lanes of northbound motor traffic across 3 streets within 100m. Just a tiny element of the grossly excess traffic capacity to that leads to so much noise San Sebastian, Spain.

1,579 killed. 30,000 hurt on our roads last year — many more deaths than homicides. Pleased with the Victims’ Commissioner intervention. Road crime victims feel forgotten by the system. This is exactly why we need a Road Safety Victim Charter and lifetime bans. www.theguardian.com/law/2026/aug...
