When your kid is asking you why do we keep a car in front of the house and you realise you haven’t used it for nearly 5 months.. #cargobike

Great demo of Ohmio self-driving shuttle. Thanks to Barnes Hammermith Electric Light Transit group - for organising. @LBRUT is keen to explore prospect of such vehicles working on Hammersmith Bridge - subject to @LBHF weight restrictions. Public transport, so desperately needed!

Super proud of my girl!
Excited to open the door to the new BCA book exchange on Barnes Green which was an idea of Alex, a local young activist who wishes to share her passion for books. A new lease of life for an old #HammersmithBridge sentry box which was converted & installed by our Men’s Shed Team.

Remove through traffic from residential road and you’ll get a healthier school run. It’s that simple.

Super proud to roll this programme (first in the UK as far as we know) across Richmond Upon Thames. Lack of dedicated parking at key designations is a major concern for potential cargo bike users so these bays will go a long way to address this. #cargobikes @RichmondCycling
We've introduced new cargo bike parking bays to support young families and promote sustainable transport 🚲 This is just one of the many schemes we've introduced to help create a convenient and safe environment for cycling! Click here to learn more ⬇️ orlo.uk/Z67z7

More new restaurants are coming to the Castelnau Parade, just south of #HammersmithBridge. Whether the lack of through traffic is linked to this increase in hospitality businesses or not, the local community will need to show their support. #shoplocal #useitorloseit @TCMBarnes
Castelnau parade, on the south side of #HammersmithBridge, is turning into the new Barnes dining quarter with a new Thai restaurant opening next week on the parade which already offers French, Italian, Georgian, Indian and British cuisines. #shoplocal @TCMBarnes
