Thanks to Cllr @maxsullivan.bsky.social for closing the Summit with some inspiring words on rethinking transport policy so we make cities that work for all!

Thanks everyone who joined us, and @citywestminster.bsky.social for hosting us up on the 17th floor with a view over London. 4/

We also had panel discussions on to help Londoners access EVs, through better charging and electric car clubs; and on how we decarbonise commercial fleets with electric trucks and vans, cargo bikes, and all the cool tech in the middle. 3/

Some key facts:

Municipalities where ZEZ-F are in place or planned averaged 6.1% electric vans, compared to 1.7% in municipalities without. (In Jan '25)

In the first half of 2025, 78.4% of newly registered vans in the Netherlands were battery-electric - far above the EU average of 8.5%.

London has leapfrogged other UK cities which still have illegal levels of air pollution.

This milestone should embolden the Mayor to take strong action, including delivering his manifesto promise to make London the world’s first electric-vehicle ready global city!

One lane of vans stuck in traffic.

One lane of cargo bikes flowing freely.

This photo powerfully shows the potential of cargo bikes in our cities.
