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

So good to see a #busgate on Whiston Road in #Hackney.
Bus gates:
- prioritise transport modes that makes the most efficient use of road space
- AND reduce injury risk for more vulnerable road users
Bus gates:
- prioritise transport modes that makes the most efficient use of road space
- AND reduce injury risk for more vulnerable road users
Between 2019-23, 30 people were injured in collisions on Whiston Road in Hackney - including a tragic fatality.
@hackneycouncil.bsky.social has now completed their vital safety scheme, inc traffic filters & bus gates, kerb build outs & width reductions & raised tables to cut speeding.

I’ve spoken to TfL workers who are terrified.
One worker told me he can’t sleep, he doesn’t know what to say to his family. Another, pregnant with her first child, fears she’ll be deported before giving birth.

I raised the devastating impact of sudden visa rule changes with the Mayor – over 200 TfL workers are at risk of deportation.
These are people who trusted the system, built lives here and are now left in limbo.
I'm glad the Mayor has committed to lobby the Government and support these workers.

We ask everyone outside of the car to be safe so that drivers can be dangerous.
That’s the entirety of our approach to road safety.

The situation on cycleway 1 at Whitmore Road is just completely unworkable and it is a travesty the Hoxton LTN hasn’t been designed to fix this. There is *far* too much motor traffic for these cycle flows. Someone is going to get hurt. @sarahwoodberrydown.bsky.social @hackneylcc.bsky.social

Thousands of road deaths a year caused by motor vehicles, speeding almost completely ignored by authorities, drink and drug driving at record highs and this is how you choose to spend your time, boasting about your stupid stunt and your shit marketing company on LinkedIn. Pathetic.

Electric cargo bikes can replace many everyday car trips for the average family and “reshape suburban family mobility”, say Oxford University researchers. 49 British households were loaned e-cargo bikes for school runs, shopping trips, family outings and other day-to-day use.
