"Residents won't use bikes or scooters." "Commuters won't use bikes or scooters." "Tourists won't use bikes or scooters." And then something magical happens when you create a network of bike lanes. 👀

👀 "Whatever their nose shape, pickups, SUVs and vans with a hood height greater than 40 inches are about 45% more likely to cause fatalities in pedestrian crashes than cars and other vehicles with a hood height of 30 inches or less and a sloping profile." —Insurance Institute for Highway Safety @IIHS_autosafety

A pedestrian hit at 25 MPH gets bumps & bruises. A pedestrian hit at 40 MPH gets a funeral. Please slow down.

Dr. John Legge, emergency medicine consultant at St. Vincent’s, writing in today’s @IrishTimes about the flawed policy of mandatory hi-vis for vulnerable road users. “It seems that any measure to improve road safety but which may inconvenience drivers cannot be considered.”

“Bologna in northern Italy saw road accidents fall by 13% and fatalities decline by around 50% in the year after it became the country's first major city to impose a 30 kph speed limit in January 2024.” Lower speed limits save lives. Ireland hesitates, and people die.

Helsinki, a city roughly the same size as Dublin, has had zero road deaths over the last year. How? 1. 30kph speed limit. 2. Better public transport. 3. Better street design. 4. Better law enforcement. 5. Courage

The easier it is to hop on a network of bike lanes, the more people ride bikes. Straightforward stuff. Build more bike lanes!

A valuable flute went missing yesterday from the owner's bike on the way to a lunchtime session in Cassidy's in Camden St. It has huge sentimental value and a reward has been offered. If anyone sees it, please send a DM. RTs appreciated.

Great to see the new bollards being installed on the footpaths this morning so that pedestrians can have safe access to and from the train station. 🙏👏 Thank you to @GardaTraffic and @GalwayCoCo for reacting so quickly to drivers blocking footpaths. #SafeRoutesForAll

'Stop ruining kids’ mornings. Instead of traffic jams in a sealed of shuttle, give them freedom, energy and joy. In Portland, @CoachBalto's “Bike Bus” lets children ride to school together—safe, fun, unforgettable. The proof isn’t stats, it’s their smiles.' — @LiorSteinberg
