@kira_millana Are these the final plans ? The proposed works removed the loading bay outside the Co-op. Is it now reinstated ? walthamforest.gov.uk/sites/default/…

Unbelievably excited about yet another important improvement in Higham Hill 👊😍 Getting greener streets done!

@healthy_hill @Labourstone I don't think that is needed. Good luck with it all !

@healthy_hill @Labourstone You are testing my intellectual purity - I like it !

@healthy_hill @Labourstone That is what I mean. The trade off shouldn't be between vulnerable people and pedestrian safety. The balance is between impatient drivers needing to wait a few seconds and pedestrian safety.

@healthy_hill @Labourstone The proposal is cynical. Post Office is a vital amenity; parking is needed for those with limited mobility. To propose removing the only permit free parking in the name of pedestrian safety, rather than doing something to actually stop people driving on the path, is disingenuous.

@healthy_hill @Labourstone I have found the local councillors very supportive on this. Happy to support any campaign.

@healthy_hill @healthy_hill @Labourstone Progress, yes, but after years of indifference. This is a consultation on some double yellow lines. Hopefully they will appear and have an impact. How can this have taken so long and why is this the limit of ambition ?

@kira_millana @ShumonAliRahman @Labourstone Thank you ! Could I ask for a link or a pointer on where to find the details ?

@AlexConnor @ShumonAliRahman @Labourstone Yes! It’s open now until 13 June. You can share any feedback by emailing: electricvehicles@walthamforest.gov.uk

Excited that alongside significant traffic calming and safety improvements at the top of Higham Hill Road, we will also shortly be going to consult on new EV bays at the bottom of the road, too! Big steps forward on our journey to a greener, safer, Higham Hill. @ShumonAliRahman

@kira_millana @healthy_hill @jreades @wfcouncil @Labourstone On the topic of Higham Hill Road pavements. The bus was unusual; the cars are there every day.

@AlexConnor @healthy_hill @jreades @wfcouncil @Labourstone Thanks all - Cc’ing @Labourstone for advice, as very unsure if a wheelchair / mobility scooter or wider pram could get through this width

Really proud that in coming weeks, @wfcouncil will be planting 148 new trees in Higham Hill ward, including 3 new elm trees in HIgham Hill Park and 5 new elms in Cheney Row Park. This is huge for our ward - we've needed better canopy coverage for a long time and it will help clean our air. 🌲🌳

@charlesmtracy Congratulations Charles ! More than deserved.

@susanmmarino It's not *just* me, then !

@AlexConnor I was googling to find out if they were related. All I found was your tweet. 😆

Early morning John Berman sounds a lot like Casey Kasem.

I think this is what you said they should do? @SheilaGilheany

If you would like to hear me blather on about Georgian London and whatnot at 5pm today, this 'event' is free, and I think will be a lot of fun. benjaminfranklinhouse.org/event/bens-boo…

This is way too self deprecating. My partner has just written a fantastic and accessible book about why place matters in the Covid era and anyone involved in cities, economic geography or business should go buy it now!

Quite wonderful
