Planning my trip to Liverpool, and I’ll never not be staggered at the eye-watering cost of train travel in the UK. It’s not that people don’t want to use public transport, they just can’t bloody afford to.
This 👇🏻 is a weeks worth of wages for someone on highest minimum wage!

Together with Mayors across England, and building on the move by @SadiqKhan, I am using what powers I have to maintain mask-wearing on public transport.
We all believe the best solution is to continue the national requirement from Monday and we hope the Government will listen.

So shocking! So frightening! So many speed and so many using phones while driving.
We need presumed liability urgently. @Chris_Boardman

The saddest thing about this story, is how little coverage it got.
Ask yourself why that is. The answer should anger us all.

Anyone who has concerns about ‘Low Traffic Neighbourhoods’ spend 1 minute watching this video and hear what it’s like from a person who’s experienced it.
Sadly, these comments don’t make headlines, so we have a brand new website to ensure people get the information they need 👇
We’ve launched a new one-stop shop website for all things active travel!

Criticism floods in for BBC's "one-sided" LTN report "fuelling culture wars"; Interviewee says he regrets taking part and accuses the broadcaster of focusing on a single heated exchange in a long debate road.cc/281779 #cycling

Tend not to get involved in things like this but this...
4 cars parking prioritised over 4000 people using the safe cycle lane every day.
And the decision to undo this can’t even be reviewed until mid March.
How can you not be deeply embarrassed by this @RBKC how?
@jthalassites @FelicityBuchan @RBKC Was the intention of the removal of the high street ken cycle lane to make way for 4x4 parking? Because it seems to be London’s fastest growing car park now.

Fixed it for you. #RBKCWrapped
Last year challenged us all in ways we didn’t expect. Despite this, staff, partners and residents of Kensington and Chelsea responded in some exceptional ways.
Take a look at #RBKCWrapped THREAD – let us know who or what impressed you in 2020? 🙌

For the last 2 weeks, I’ve been using Google’s AI platform to monitor what % of time the space, previously occupied by a cycle lane carrying thousands of people per day, is blocked by parked vehicles.
Who wants to guess what % of time it’s blocked? Results in the media soon.

Think Amsterdam was always a city of bikes? Decades ago it wasn’t.
Think Copenhagen was always a city of bikes? Decades ago it wasn’t.
Think central PARIS was always a city of bikes? LAST YEAR it wasn’t.

Rather strangely, we have a perception of what a “cyclist” looks like in this country. This can affect everything from attitudes on the road, media coverage and uptake from people who feel “cycling isn’t for people like me”.
The #BikeIsBest campaign is here to shake that up.
