@BBCLondonNews This is atrociously poor “investigation” @BBCPanorama @BBCLondonNews. Completely fails to distinguish between legal regulated e-bikes and illegal unlicensed electric motorbikes. Do better.

Do electric bikes need tighter regulations?
A BBC Panorama investigation has found that some more powerful and faster e-bikes, while openly sold as commuter bikes, are illegal to ride on the road.

We want every child in England to have transport independence and unshackle millions of parents from the grind of the school run. 👇
Active Travel England@activetraveleng
85% of people in England support active travel and would like to do more. Today, we’ve released new guidance for councils to help them design more school streets, which make walking and cycling to school safer and more enjoyable for all 👩🦽🚲🚶♂️ Learn more: gov.uk/government/new…

Good news! Our consultation on extending Cycleway 9 between Brentford & Syon Park shows the vast majority of people think it'll enable more people to cycle in the area.
We're now working with @LBofHounslow to update the plans following your feedback.

@EllyBakerAM @MayorofLondon @guidedogs @NFBUK So what’s your “appropriately designed” solution? Apart from literally throwing people on bikes under the bus?

I have written today to @MayorofLondon to again raise my concerns about bus stop bypasses and their impact on access to public transport.
I sincerely hope we will see change on the ground - instead of a seemingly unstoppable rollout of inappropriately designed infrastructure.

And yet £3bn to freeze fuel duty. This is feeble. Such a wasted opportunity for a fresh start from new government.

@PutneyFleur @putneysw15 @Fulhamsw6com No no no. Let it go now, it wasn’t made for cars and its car days are behind it.

Hammersmith Bridge update.
It was great to meet with the Minister and other South West London MPs who are campaigning for Hammersmith Bridge to re-open.
We had a productive meeting and look forward to hearing from the Government Taskforce in the near future for progress.

This is disappointing and ill-advised. You need to think again @EllyBakerAM

DfT has just published 2023 road traffic casualty data. We looked at the last 12 years of data for #Cycleway9 section on Chiswick High Rd & the good news is 2023 had the lowest number of casualties over this period. @katherinedunne @Shansview @willnorman

It’s the @BarnesBikeSale day and as expected the queue is very long. Barnes loves cycling #LTN

The latest stretch of Cycleway 9 has opened linking Watermans Park with Alexandra Road. We went to the opening to see the positive reactions to the new route.

Thanks for coming to Brentford Will. Glad you liked the C9 works, which are ahead of schedule and will be completed this summer thanks to @HounslowHways
Will Norman@willnorman
The work on London’s Cycleway 9 to Brentford is progressing at pace. The new protected cycle lanes are looking good. Can’t wait to ride this bit of the route later this year. Nice work @LBofHounslow highways team & @tfl team

A one driver demonstration of why LTNs matter (and the shambles that is High St Kensington @RBKC )

Meet Ratrun Ronnie. He knows the backstreets of @RBKC, and he's not going to sit in a jam behind that Harrods van. From my commute home yesterday.

Just a little tribute to Steve Curran, the former council leader in my area who has died… but who changed many lives for the better
