A good eg here of changes made during the pandemic taking the slow steps from formal trial to permanent reallocation of street space away from cars and towards people. Great to see. Trials/pilots are a crucial part of demonstrating what reprioritised streets look/feel like & building public support

This @bicycledutch.bsky.social video perfectly captures how the test phase transitions into permanent bike-friendly spaces.

A simple, effective model that should be standard practice everywhere.

To stop cycle fatalities you need:

✔️Protected cycle tracks on main roads that continue at junctions that keep vulnerable road users and large vehicles separate.

You don't need:
❌Helmets
❌High Viz
❌Cycle training

Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity.

He thinks climate change isn't real, so he thinks these groups have committed fraud.

Which of course is fucking crazy.

Our video nasty of the Colney Lane roundabout continues to make waves.

The story features in the latest #BikeIsBest newsletter, as @rantyhighwayman.bsky.social dubs the video “a masterclass on all that is wrong about UK roundabout design”.

No one alive will experience a better climate than today. But young people will experience a much more dangerous and chaotic world in the future, and the extent to which that happens will depend on our choices today. Trump doesn't care because he's old and a sociopath.
