Hello — like many others, reflecting on Twitter’s demise, I’ll shortly be shutting this account down. Thanks for all the interactions and messages over the years, it’s been fun. The conversation continues — come and join the growing Kingston community on Bluesky!

The hot weather and Olympic Games has inspired me to visit the wonderful pool in Kingston which we don’t have and probably never will, thanks to the @KingstonLibDems demolishing it during the pandemic. Great job!

@swtrains_watch @SW_Help hi, any news on getting rid of the 455 trains on London suburban routes? It's 33 degrees inside the train and it goes all the way from Wat to Guildford! Not ideal!

Buses will not stop in the bus station during construction, with temporary stops put in place. 🔗 Please see more detailed travel advice tfl.gov.uk/kingston-cromwell…

Cromwell Bus Station is to close from 28 August - until next summer. Buses will be stopping at temporary stops or "as close as possible". The work is basically to make the bus station nicer to use, rather than adding new services etc: tfl-newsroom.prgloo.com/news…

The Bridge Buttress Lifelines encircle the base of the arches of Kingston Road and Rail Bridges, providing anyone who accidentally ends up in the water with something to grab hold of. #Safer

Bus news: The X26 speedy service from Kingston to Heathrow (or Croydon) is being renamed the SL7 (part of the 'London Superloop') from August 19 and it's going to be doubled in frequency, so it runs every 15 minutes. This adds 1,100,000 bus kilometres a year, says @TfL

Lingfield Avenue has become really nasty for cycling. Exacerbated by the new build outs but mainly due to really aggressive driver behaviour. It’s constant. This is a critical route used by many cyclists — what more can be done @RBKingston @KingstonCycling @MPSGrove ? – at Kingston upon Thames, London

So powerful to hear Agatha, aged just 9, speak at tonight's Kingston Council Place Committee. She asked: "I was 6 when I last swam at the Kingfisher. I am now 9. Can you guarantee that I will be able to swim there again when I am 12?" Short answer: no. 💔 #SOSKingfisher
