Thank you @CBTransport and thank you to the millions of 'Hazels' who #GetOnBoard every day #LoveTheBus #CatchTheBusMonth
Catch the Bus Month finishes today, but for Hazel and millions of others, every day is a good day for a bus journey!
We've enjoyed celebrating brilliant buses, thanks @BusUsersUK for another great #CatchTheBusmonth!
ALT "To get to hospitals, shops, doctors, schools, family, friends, library, swimming pool, cinema, dentists, holidays, museums, ten pin bowling, train stations, funerals, wholesalers, work, Citizen's Advice Bureau, trampoline class... these are all reasons we have caught the bus. -Hazel, Gloucestershire

"The dominant voice in transport is still coming from vehicles and car use. It means we’re missing out on people who are already marginalised in one way or another... And we miss out on the 22% of households without access to a car." Watch our @CfSocialScience seminar...
Did you miss our webinar on transport policy🚅 with Dr Matthew Niblett (event chair), @charliemuss, Dr Siobhan Campbell (@NMIS_group) & @iaindocherty? The recording is now available to watch on our website.

ATTRACTIVENESS is one of five design principles Dutch planners use to create successful cycling networks.
How can one apply it?
🌳 Plan cycle links in lively and/or green areas
🏭 Avoid links in industrial, dark, deserted areas
🌈 Consider lighting, street furniture, street art
