Parking on zigzags and mounting the pavement.

All to put up or take down the latest advert for McDonald’s.

This could be prevented if ordinary citizens could submit this stuff quickly and simply through an app. It would massively transform our public spaces for the better.

When you open a street up to people - anything can happen! It was fantastic to be out for another beautiful Meet Me On Milwaukee, hosted by @aldermanlaspata.bsky.social! We saw little kids riding their bikes, tandems, strollers, dogs, dining, DJs, and a lot more.

What street should do this next?

The two tests of cycling infrastructure should be

1 - would this be okay for a 12 year old child on their own?

AND

2 - would this be okay for lone woman at night?

If the answer to either of these is NO then it's not adequate.

Active travel is a public health issue.

We really really need politicians at all levels to understand that building decent bike lanes won't just help a few Lycra-clad blokes: it will have a massive impact on people's health long term.

‘Cycleway 1’ Whitmore
Road in Hackney. This amount of motor traffic just can’t safely mix with this amount of cycle traffic so it isn’t safe for kids to cycle to school. It is inexplicable the planned Hoxton LTN won’t address this.

Almost 900 fewer people have been injured on Welsh roads since the default speed limit was lowered from 30 to 20mph two years ago

Casualties on 20 to 30mph roads between July and September 2024 were the lowest for the three month-period since records began in 1979

👏 Evidence-led policy
Nearly 900 fewer people injured since 20mph introduction in Wales
Figures show a 25% reduction in the number of injuries on Wales' roads in the past 18 months.

What if we put cameras on the signs though, just in case?
More speed cameras cut down in Toronto, with Premier Doug Ford appearing to support the vandals, telling the city to get rid of speed cameras and instead put up more signs to slow down drivers.

Avant / Après la piste réalisée en 2022 à Mons-en-Baroeul dans le Nord. Elle ne longe pas toujours la route. Le coût: 400.000 euros pour 600 mètres. Deux ans entre l'idée et la réalisation, dont trois mois pour que la commune récupère la propriété du terrain restée par erreur à l'usine voisine.

“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties”

Continued driving on the wrong side of the road at 50mph despite being blinded by the sun & his wife warning him about oncoming vehicles. Caused life-changing injuries to the oncoming driver.

The sanction: a measly £3k fine & 1 year driving ban

It's disappointing that the government's plan to get people moving is focused around "Go for a jog" rather than, as the evidence suggests, building environments that encourage everyday incidental exercise: the ability to walk to amenities

A good reminder that the main reason people travel anywhere - especially older people - is to get to shops. If we make driving to shops compulsory we can't be surprised when people get no exercise. Mind you, 2 things can be true and the lazy arses in my village who drive 300m to the Co-op can do one
