@TransportActio2 @LouHaigh What a fantastic report. New roads make us poorer and more unhealthy as well as destroying some of our most beautiful countryside and spewing carbon that we can't afford to emit. Great work @TransportActio2 really hoping that @LouHaigh finds it helpful in her decision-making

Cancel new roads to boost growth: our submission to @LouHaigh’s infrastructure review as to why cancelling £15bn or more of new roads would help grow the economy and support Labour’s five missions transportactionnetwork.org.uk/government-urg…

The A66 is the very worst value road in this list costing £1.2bn but with only 92p return for every £1 spent. There are so many better and cheaper ways to promote safety on the road than a new 70mph dual carriageway, but these were never even considered by National Highways

@WorkersPartyGB Hi, @WorkersPartyGB can you tell me how to get in touch with your candidate for the Westmorland and Lonsdale constituency? I need his contact details to invite him to a hustings on 24th June. Thanks.

@WorkersPartyGB hi, I'm organising a hustings in Westmorland and Lonsdale for the PPCs and I would like to get in touch with Gary Cattle Boon, your candidate for the constituency so I can invite him. Is there any way to find his contact details? Thanks

Money that was going to be spent on public transport will now be spent on building new roads!

The @MailOnline is also reporting the eye-watering cost of removing the infill from #GreatMusgraveBridge. Charities and voluntary organisations could have transformed lives with £476K. But @NationalHways cannot deliver value for money. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Utter nonsense from the government. Active travel makes places and people healthier. Well done TAN in bringing this timely and very necessary challenge

“Unsurprisingly, the Secretary of State is in no rush to approve this controversial and costly mega-road scheme." - Rebecca Lush, @TransportActio2 Our statement on the postponement of the £1.5 billion A66 Northern Trans Pennine road scheme transportactionnetwork.org.uk/statement-on-t…

@TransportActio2 This is great news for the climate and the environment. We'll be keeping our fingers crossed that this road does not get permission

@TransportActio2 @transportgovuk This is brilliant news, congratulations TAN

BREAKING High Court gives @TransportActio2 permission to judicially review the @transportgovuk decision to cut walking & cycling funding. More to follow. Please continue to support our legal challenge if you're able to

It is absolute madness to continue the road building programme. It's destroying the landscape and polluting our air. Does the Government not realise that there is a climate emergency? They seriously need to stop and think.

We're at the High Court today! We'll be making our case for a full hearing on the £1bn, ten mile dual carriageway which we believe should be halted on climate & environmental grounds. Please support us 👉🏾crowdjustice.com/case/halt-clim…

Tl:dr for the IPCC report: It's getting worse. It's going to get a lot worse yet. We're still making it worse. We need to throw absolutely everything at proven climate solutions. We need to build climate resilience into everything. We're still going to need carbon removals.

Every new fossil fuel project makes the world less habitable Last year’s devastating floods in Pakistan are proof of it - so is Storm Freddy which is wreaking havoc in Southern Africa RIGHT NOW It’s time fossil fuel giants STOP DRILLING & START PAYING for their climate damage!
