Schools are starting to go back, there's rain about and air quality may have taken a dip but let's celebrate what #Oxfordshire has achieved so far and make sure it stays on the agenda for future administrations. #CleanAir #AirPollution #ActiveTravel

Isaac Beevor: Oxfordshire now ...

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

Street Life North Tyneside have written a good response to the North East Combined Authority's local travel plan: https://streetlifentyneside.org.uk/2025/02/17/our-response-to-north-east-combined-authoritys-local-travel-plan/

Really, it's just a long list of demands, but they make sense. The point about how many dangerous junctions you have to cross when cycling from north tyneside to Newcastle resonates with me, and feels like an obvious priority for the cycle network.

On active travel, it looks like an extra £100m for the financial year - so, scraping behind the sofa for money for walking, wheeling, and cycling. Great, thanks(!)

What makes a bikeable neighborhood?
As this 2019 #OpenAccess paper
in #JTLU by Salon, Conway, Wang, & Roth suggests, the answer depends in part on age and gender.

"Heterogeneity in the relationship between biking and the built
environment"

A quick #introduction in this place, having been on the avian dinosaur site for a while.

I'm interested in #LabourMarkets, #Innovation,#statistics, particularly #rstats, #history (inc really ancient like non-avian dinosaurs), #policies. I'm originally a #geographer, so partial to #devolution. Sometimes do #openstreetmap, #cycling, #activetravel.

Retired from full-time work, last at @LearnworkUK on the avian dinosaur.
