When asked how people like to travel, workshop participants cut car use by half: from 37% to 19% while bus use tripled. A great insight from the recent co-creation workshop on how conversations can shape smarter, greener mobility 🇮🇪 @cyclingincork.bsky.social @irishcyclingcmpn.bsky.social

We were at the Mansion House for yesterday's launch of the Climate & Health Alliance’s discussion paper -
‘Active Travel: the Magic Pill.

A great collaboration between health care professionals & active travel advocates.

"But everyone knows what I mean when I say "bike"!

While that may be true, when we talk about 'bikes' it's easy for many people to forget about those who need to use non-standard cycles such as trikes, recumbents and tandems.

'The real scandal here is not “bike shed groundhog day.” It’s the groundhog day of car dependency, subsidised at vast public expense, locking us into congestion, pollution, poor health and missed climate targets.'

Great piece from @ciarancannon.bsky.social

Opinion: Those outraged by a €100k bike shed should look at the annual cost of renting out car park spaces
We have completely normalised investment in congestion, pollution and the continuation of car-first planning, writes Ciarán Cannon.

If you are in Dublin, please support this.

If not, you can email or call your TD (and Minister Seán Canney TD is the Galway TD with responsibility for Road Safety) and ask them to attend the Love30 presentation on Thursday.
A reminder that this rally is happening this coming Thursday 2nd Oct.

Please support it if you can by joining us on the day or contact your local TDs & ask them to attend the Love 30 presentation in the AV room.

This effects rural Ireland as much as it does our larger towns and cities.

"Road deaths are rising in Ireland and, despite what you heard, this is not a post-covid phenomenon. That failure is impacting disproportionately on those who are least responsible for the dangers on roads.
One in every three road deaths this year has been a person walking, cycling, or scooting."
Clear reasoning as to why we need a national evidence based approach to delivering default 30kph limits in built-up areas.

Delegating this to local govt will mean delays & inconsistencies & lead more pointless deaths & serious injuries.

Lower speed limits will help Ireland reduce road deaths
Wales cut road casualties by 28% after reducing speed limits. Yet only one of the new lower speed limits introduced in Ireland's Road Traffic Act 2024 has been implemented
