These numbers are wild: According to Transport for London, in 2023 cargo bike use jumped 73% in inner London and 63% citywide. In a single year! www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Some battery-assisted cargo bikes can haul more than 600 pounds of goods, showing the potential to displace many half-empty vans.

Only one of these transport choices is the future for cities. 💖🚲 Taken today in Oxford by my friend Guy.

A little girl on a bicycle is seen on an open bicycle path, with her back to the camera, next to a traffic jam of stationary cars. Sunlight dapples the path.

Cycle routes in #Eastbourne#Meads are often just signage, which as here, show some destinations in the wrong direction. No markings on road and nothing to warn drivers

Went to see it in the flesh first thing this morning. This is London’s first (I think?) “implied” side road zebra crossing. It has no flashing “Belisha” beacons. It is just paint. Same as you see in dozens of other countries. New for the UK

Shows a zebra crossing marked on a side road. The street is in central London. There is a shop and a cafe in the background. Vans are driving up the main road. It is damp

Should Car Free Day become a regular fixture at weekends? We commissioned YouGov to survey low income, urban residents of Scotland in 2022 and the idea had majority support. 58% supported the idea vs 31% opposed. Source: www.ippr.org/articles/fai...#carfreeday

One of the (many) problems with painted cycle lanes is that they give drivers the false impression that they're overtaking safely, when in reality they're well short of the minimum 1.5m clearance. #MurderStrips#PaintIsntInfrastructure

A painted bike lane in central Manchester with a car passing on the right, leaving very little space between the car and the kerb.

#ChrisBoardman@activetravelcaf.bsky.social meeting gave evidence how poor cycle schemes actually are often 'worse than nothing'
