Great to see launch of Vision Zero Action Plan 2. It is made up of actions that make London's streets safer for people on foot inc. reducing vehicle speeds, safe high streets (+ lots more ped'n crossings), reducing traffic + more enforcement by Met Police content.tfl.gov.uk/vision-zero-ac…
Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan@MayorofLondon

It is neither inevitable nor acceptable that anyone is killed on London’s roads. Today’s Vision Zero Action Plan launch at LAS HART Resilience Hub reinforces my commitment to ending road deaths. There is more to do, but every step matters to make our city safer.

It's another huge benefit for pedestrians from 20mph in Wales as legislation passed today enables councils to install simplified side zebra crossings at junctions where the main and side roads have a 20mph limit. highwaysmagazine.co.uk/news/local-roa…

Rapid work this. One of a number of schemes that can finally allow Central London to become as pedestrian-friendly as many European capitals. See too the Crown Estate plans for Regent St area and @CamdenCouncil 's amazing proposals across Holborn.
Will Norman@willnorman

The pedestrianisation of Oxford St will be transformational - making it a safer and much more pleasant area to visit. We've published our plans for the first phase of this exciting project. Have your say: haveyoursay.tfl.gov.uk/oxford-street-…

Not only are London’s buses amongst the cheapest in the UK, but we’re making them faster too ⚡️ Our £30m investment in Haringey, Lewisham & Southwark will improve bus services and speed up journeys, supporting neighbourhoods and improving access to jobs and services.

🌍 What do global cities such as Amsterdam, Stockholm and Edinburgh all have in common? These major cities have ALL banned fossil fuel adverts. These ads have massive climate and health impacts, all while targeting politically influential decision makers.

TfL confirms changes to Congestion Charge inc. increase to £18 from Jan 2026 and the potential for annual increases. Sadly missing is the re-introduction of charging in the evenings to deter driving in the CCZ at the time when pedestrians are most out and about in town.
TfL@TfL

Congestion Charge update. 📣 From January 2026: Daily charge for standard vehicles becomes £18. EV discounts via Auto Pay: £9 (vans/HGVs), £13.50 (cars). Support remains for low-income and disabled Londoners. Current residents also keep their 90% discount. For more details and Auto Pay registration: tfl.gov.uk/modes/driving/…

Speed was a factor in over 60% of collisions in Enfield in last 5 yrs. Great to see @EnfieldCouncil introducing new 20mph zones in Edmonton, Palmers Green & Southgate. Crashes fall approx 40% after 20mph zones are introduced. This will save lives! letstalk.enfield.gov.uk/20mph

Thanks so much to you John and colleagues for a brilliant tour of the Royal Docks Corridor. This scheme is vital for not just people in @NewhamLondon but also has big lessons on how to tame main roads and make them much safer, greener and more pleasant places.
John Morris@Plaistovian

Fantastic to show @livingstreets around the Royal Docks Corridor today! The improvements are already making a difference — safer crossings, greener streets, and better spaces for people. It’s exciting to see how the corridor is becoming a welcoming, people-first route. 🌳🚶‍♀️🚲
