When are pedestrians and cyclist's going to get the Investment Strategy putting a record amount into renewing our Strategic Highway Network so vulnerable road users get the world class highways they deserve. @simonlightwood
Simon Lightwood MP@simonlightwood

For too long our roads have been left crumbling by the wayside. 🛣️ That changes today. Our new £27 billion Road Investment Strategy will put a record amount into renewing our Strategic Road Network so drivers and businesses get the world class roads they deserve.

Today, Active Travel England has announced a new programme to help councils design streets that are safer for women and girls. 9 in 10 women have felt unsafe walking at night. Designing streets that feel safe isn’t optional – it’s essential. Read more: activetravelengland.gov.uk/news/nationwid…

Paris showing that politicians who ignore the vocal “anti-bike” lobby, and make cycling a safe alternative, not only transform their cities for the better, but become very popular and re-elected. @AndyBurnhamGM @DameSarahStorey
Brent Toderian@BrentToderian

The most important thing about this amazing Paris transformation is how fast it happened —how fast people on bikes “appeared” —once streets were transformed. You can’t write this off as “#Paris was always this way,” because it wasn’t. It took leadership.

@A56Safety @AndyBurnhamGM @DameSarahStorey We’ve built cycle lanes up & down the A56, Deansgate etc & they’re empty, the locals have rejected cycling, the trams are busy though. You’re Betamax in a VHS world

Outgoing Mayor Anne Hidalgo championed a car-free agenda, leaving Paris greener, cleaner and better for walking and biking. Take a journey through the city to see how it's changed. Read more: bloom.bg/4rPgL0N 📷️: Getty Images

After 12 years under Mayor Anne Hidalgo, it's pretty clear that "the bike beat the car in Paris." From 2002 to 2023, car traffic fell by more than half, dedicated cycle lanes expanded sixfold, and today, bike trips outnumber car trips by more than 2 to 1 in the city.

Walking, wheeling and cycling saved the NHS almost £2 billion and removed up to 2.9 million cars from the road every day last year, according to a study conducted by the Walk Wheel Cycle Trust. cyclingindustry.news/study-walking-…

Cycling side-by-side isn’t bad behaviour. It’s human behaviour. It’s how parents talk to kids. How friends catch up. How communities form. If our bike lanes are too narrow for people to ride and talk together, the problem isn’t the people. It’s the lanes. Nørrebro, Copenhagen.

@MENnewsdesk Let's hope they do a better job than the horrendous Great Ancoats Street boulevard that's a nightmare to cycle along.

There’s also no evidence cyclists are breaking the speed limit. If it’s an electric bike capable of going faster that 15mph then it’s a moped / motorbike, and the problems with motorcyclists.

@BobFromAccounts Don't publicise Mr A***hole. He advertises himself to drivers charged with drink-driving as finding "loopholes" for them! He's a stain on the legal profession, opposed to real restrictions on road danger, picking on a relatively non-violent and vulnerable minority.

This is a massive scandal. Labour has invented a made-up tactical vote organisation to trick Gorton and Denton into voting for them. How can this even be legal?

@BotFinderUK So if thousand of us around the country change our location to Gorton, does this mean their election budget will be used up / wasted on people not living there?

Change your Facebook location to somewhere in Gorton and Denton and within about an hour you'll see how much money Reform is spending to win the seat - targeted bots, ads, sock puppets, fake news

@LlyrPowell @ZiaYusufUK If its a "War on motorists" then how come its reducing the number of motorists killed and injured on Welsh urban/village roads. Over 1,000 fewer deaths and injuries since implementation.
