  1. Tagging @[email protected] for the second time today, I think it was him who said “show me what your problem is and I’ll tell you why it’s too many cars”

  2. Perfect remains the enemy of good enough?

    TBH there should be more encouragement to put #ActiveTravel schemes in that aren’t quite compliant with funding to bring them up to spec later. We seem to spend too much time navel gazing and not enough delivering.

  6. High Street residents mostly positive on city taking land for multiuse path

    "It’ll connect to the existing multiuse path further south on High. The project also involves replacing two existing traffic signals and installing new stormwater infrastructure and improving crosswalks"

    At the community meeting for this people barely asked about the path but were very worried about stormwater. I hope that infrastructure went well.

  9. Incentives for people who🚶‍♀️30m/day from NHS England? BMJ @scarlettmcnally.bsky.social "A better system'd reward modal shift 🚗 =>🚶🚲🛴🚌 It'd need changes to infrastructure, but strong evidence shows that active travel improves mental & physical health" #NHS #ActiveTravel www.bmj.com/content/394/...

  10. Bloody hell, France, do you not subsidise active travel? Look at this for a journey from Cherbourg to Rennes - cheapest mode is driving a wasteful heap of metal, instead of sitting in a comfortable train & bus! In fact, looking at the SNCF site, it's far, far worse!

  11. Well, I guess it's good for active travel campaigners that Heidi Alexander has remained as lead transport minister. That should mean Chris Boardman stays as Commissioner. #activetravel #heidialexander #biketooter

  13. How do you feel about memberships for websites/newsletters (free, but sign-up required)? In an age of rampant AI content theft, I'm torn.

    I've popped this post behind the membership wall as an experiment. I'd welcome your thoughts and boosts so I can gather some feedback. Thanks.

  15. Sick of reading about politics? Subscribe to my newsletter instead :) Writing and photo stories about travelling actively through life.

    How do places reveal themselves through journeys on foot or by bike? How do cycling and walking shape our understanding of ourselves? How can we fight for the right to move freely through our environment on foot or awheel?

  19. A Conversation with Changing Lanes Documentary Director, Ben Wolf

    youtu.be/XE9CW_3IWFc?si=HzSoKY

    "How streets get transformed into safer, more inviting places is messy and difficult. This fascinating new documentary by Director Ben Wolf dives deep into the details of just such a transformation in New York City, and the results are beautiful and inspiring, yet frustrating on so many levels"
