Alexander Ehmann

Thought 4 day: I’ve had yrs being vilified by car obsessed political opponents & called “car-hating”, while (often same time) being told by anti-car hardliners that I lack “courage” to take on motorists 🤷‍♂️FAOD, I don’t break bread with either set of zealots. I’m a Pragmatist.

Campaigners and Richmond Council have raised concerns over a lack of clear signage ahead of a planned speed limit change on one of the borough's busiest roads ‼️ READ MORE ➡️twickenham.nub.news/news/local-new…

The new limit will apply between St Margaret’s Roundabout and Richmond Circus. Learn more and hear from Cllr @AlexanderEhmann ⬇️ richmond.gov.uk/a316_speed_lim…

Utterly delighted to see newly installed school signage next to St Stephens School on the A316. This is a hard-won win by all three St Margaret’s Ward Councillors and residents, who are still pressing for further local improvements to pedestrian/cyclist safety. #visionzero

Idling Action at Mortlake Crossing today 🚦🛑💨 Richmond Council held an action event around education and prevention. The main message was SWITCH OFF your engine at the crossing. Idling Action teams talked to drivers on both sides of the crossing. #CleanAir please.

A brief video setting out why last night’s decision by @LBRUT Transport and Air Quality Committtee was the right decision for e-bike users, non-users and Council taxpayers. Here’s what we’ve secured 👇

@ffcwhodat @LibDems @LBRUT Sorry to hear that. Please do email me: cllr.a.ehmann@richmond.gov.uk

@AlexanderEhmann @LibDems @LBRUT All sounds very impressive, however I have been trying to get some details re Constance Road (TW2) pavement inspections for best part of 2/3 months, but nothing to date. I have also supplied photos of existing ongoing issues, again still waiting for response.

The £21m investment @LibDems have made in @LBRUT roads & pavements has doubled the number of roads & pavements being refurbished. Only Lib Dems have a plan to correct decades of underinvestment in our transport network. More to the point - we’re already delivering it!

St Margaret’s and North Twickenham Surgery this morning from 10am. @HarrisAndHoole, St Margarets. ☕️

Thanks to the local @metpoliceuk for their support too. We also caught another public urinator on the A316 right before I headed off!

Grateful to @RFUHomeTurf for allowing Ward Councillors to accompany enforcement teams around the Stadium following the England v Ireland Rugby today. Bad news is that I personally saw multiple cases of public urination. Good news is Council enforcement officers issued tickets.

Thanks @ShelaghFogarty. Have asked our highways contractor to investigate the utterly unnacceptable language. Glad to have had time to speak to you earlier today! I was the Council man knocking at the door!

@ShelaghFogarty I wonder if you would drop me an email about the problems you observed with last night’s streetworks - cllr.a.ehmann@richmond.gov.uk Happy to explain the rationale for the night works, but appalled to hear about the alleged remark of a Conways operative.

A little update from me on Car Clubs, Zip Car’s departure and @LBRUT work to market-make for this important element of Shared Mobility.

Whitton, Rugby & London Roads are now closing until 1640

🔔 St Margaret’s and North Twickenham Councillor Surgery this morning!!! 10-11am. @HarrisAndHoole - St Margarets Come along! 🚶 🚶‍♀️ 🚶‍♂️

Great to see work going ahead to improve the slipway linking the towpath and East Twickenham near Richmond Bridge. This will be a big improvement for both pedestrians and cyclists. 🚶‍♀️🚴‍♀️

@kieren No probs!

@AlexanderEhmann So sorry. Will fix. Should have double checked.

@kieren just read your article on your Putney News website. Just for avoidance if doubt, I’m Councillor Alexander Ehmanm - not “Raymond”. Just to clear that one up. The megaphone might have been the culprit!!!

The Liberal Democrats 🔶️ were out in force at Hammersmith Bridge today. Both Sarah Olney MP and Transport Chair Alex Ehmann spoke to applause. The message 'restore Hammersmith Bridge to its original state' was appreciated. The government needs to ACT NOW and fund repairs

Bring back our Buses and Blue Lights NOW! #libdems
