MCC campaigns for better and safer space for cycling across the Liverpool City Region.
As the nights draw in… Remember that the Highway Code’s road user hierarchy puts responsibility on those likely to cause most harm (clue: that’s not pedestrians and cyclists).

You can’t take away parking spaces in Liverpool city centre, it’ll destroy the local economy they say…

Would you bring the cars back to Bold Street? 🚙🚙🚙🚙

Remembering John Lennon on what would have been his 85th birthday 🕊️

“As a kid, I had a dream – I wanted to own my own bicycle. When I got the bike I must have been the happiest boy in Liverpool, maybe the world. I lived for that bike.”

Lovely atmosphere at @lpoolcouncil.bsky.social's Car Free Day event on Earle Road - kids, residents, students enjoying the activities.
Next year for #WorldCarfreeDay, it would be great to see this rolled out in neighbourhoods and town centres across all six councils in @lpoolcityregion.bsky.social!

Ride leaders needed for women-led 'Ride the Night' in Liverpool on Wednesday 22 October!

It's part of Cycling UK's campaign calling for safer streets and better cycling infrastructure, especially for women riding after dark.

If you would like to help with the ride in any way, please get in touch 🚲

Such a powerful and sadly necessary campaign from More Than A Cyclist, whose mission is to make cycling safer by putting a human face to people who ride bikes.

As progress is being made on the Wirral towards making it safer for everyone to walk, wheel and cycle, so the minority of people who oppose active travel measures have become increasingly angry and vocal.
Kudos to Gary from Wallasey, who stepped up & spoke out at a Wirral Council meeting last week👏🚲

Save the Fender Lane cycle route
You could either vote to keep the route as it is, or to see it improved at either end (where the route currently gives up!)
Here’s the link to the Fender Lane and New Chester Road surveys.
