The Ranty Highwayman
A freelance highway engineer's adventures in time & space. The street is not too narrow, your imagination is too narrow.
I'm interested in making urban places safe and easy for walking, wheeling and cycling.
I'm currently trying to make a living running my micro-consultancy, City Infinity, and I also write for Highways Magazine.
I also dabble a bit in home-brewing and fruit growing/ foraging, plus I am a bit of a Lego addict and a fan of silly action films.
I'm based in London, UK.
