Between 2021 and 2025, around 2 million cyclists passed the floating bus stops on Leith Street, Edinburgh, and around 5 million bus passengers boarded or alighted here. No injuries have been recorded. Over the same period, drivers injured around 600 Edinburgh pedestrians, killing 16.

All right, but apart from safer streets, cleaner air, and better business, what has low traffic ever done for us?

Oxford Clarion@oxfordclarion.bsky.social

A report on 5 years of Low Traffic Neighbourhoods in East Oxford shows that they have reduced road casualties by over 100. The report by the Coalition for Healthy Streets and Active Travel (CoHSAT) also points to the health benefits of reduced air pollution and performance of Cowley Road shops.

Brexit has been a Tory masterclass in ideological madness. Itโ€™s widely accepted by the country as a barrelling shitshow but *still* their entitled little reps strut about insisting we canโ€™t be allowed to vote on it again. Who TF does this person think she is? And why TF should she decide anything?

In an interview with The i Paper, shadow housing secretary Katie Lam, who voted Leave in 2016, rejected the prospect of Britain rejoining the EU. Read more: trib.al/VYQTH5y

Plans have been unveiled for a network of cycle routes linking nearby towns and villages to Oxford, backed by county and city councils โ€“ and unusually, the University of Oxford. The Oxford Greenways would connect 200,000 residents to the city on traffic-free paths. oxfordclarion.uk/oxford-green...

This is fantastic, but a real shame that Wallingford seems to have dropped off the proposed county network. Probably something to do with LGR? @goringgapcycling.bsky.social

Farage / Reform already face numerous investigations for corruption. Now this. Why TF does this guy get to buy our democracy? Why does his say and his wallet get to wield such influence? This isnโ€™t a โ€œlevel playing fieldโ€ at all. Itโ€™s a richboysโ€™ membership club. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Fans complaining about modern football: you're right, but you allowed it to happen. You bought the โ‚ฌ100 replica shirts and you went along with the stupid kick-off times, obscene ticket prices, multiple tv subscriptions and bloated formats. You did this to yourselves.

Football is a wonderful, beautiful game but fan rivalry is the most pathetic thing a grown adult can engage in. You're hating and abusing a group of strangers for no reason other than being told you should hate them. Get over yourselves.
