🧵1/16 Traffic evaporation was brought up at the last HATOC meeting a few weeks ago. It wasn't very well explained, so I thought I'd make a thread explaining it and how it applies to Heavitree & Whipton #ActiveStreets Trial

So many bikes at the County Show this year! (There are more behind me and this is just one entrance!). Perhaps it's time to get serious about bike parking instead of just using a fence.... @DevonCountyShow @ExeterLibDems @DevonLibDems @exeterlabour @exetergreens

Bristol’s “invisible” bike lanes to be painted red to reduce conflict with pedestrians – but cyclists warn “lipstick on a pig” approach will not make “disjointed” infrastructure safer road.cc/313919 #cycling

Perhaps this line needs double tracking 🤔🤔
Replying to @nationalrailenq
