When @SadiqKhan was first elected in 2016, experts said it would take 193 years to bring London’s air within legal limits.
Thanks to ULEZ and other transformative policies, we’ve done it in just 9 YEARS !

The Leighton Road width restriction is not fit for purpose. Pictures from yesterday. @_petermason @deirdrecostigan @P_DriscollW5W13 LTNs removed, traffic levels are crazy. Do something meaningful!

The reaction to today's ambush of President Zelensky by Trump and Vance is a good litmus test for which accounts on here are utterly irredeemable / in thrall to Putin. It's good to see a number of right wing voices call this horrific display out. When the story of the demise of the MAGA cult is told, today will play a significant role.

If it is true as reported, that prior to the meeting Lynsey Graham warned Zelensky not to "take the bait" then this was absolutely a set up.

So the LTN is relaxed, the result is a child nearly being hit by her car, and she wants the restrictions completely scrapped so no child dares invade her roadspace? Help me understand

On-street parking or on-street dining ?
Is it even a question
Perhaps 2025 will be the year when private cars are banned from Soho.

She was such a popular deputy mayor that they named a Lizzie line train in her honour.... why @Heidi_Labour as Transport Secretary could be good news for London standard.co.uk/news/transpor…

We are delighted to announce the winner of this year's #AcitveTravelChallenge bookmark design competition. Congratulations to the @hambroughps Year 5 Spruce class pupil. I am sure you will agree it showcases the best way to travel to school. @EalingLearning @EalingCouncil 🚲👟🛴
ALT Bookmark design showing a red cartoon person riding a bike, a blue cartoon person riding a scooter, a picture of a traffic light, a pink cartoon person walking and the words walk, scooter, cycle, helps keep your mind healthy and reduces stress! All people have a yellow outline glow showing they need to be bright to be seen.

Transport Secretary, @LouHaigh has unveiled her vision for integrated transport across England - & there's a lot to like, particularly her recognition that people need to be supported to make cleaner transport choices with safe, accessible streets.
