Russell Hobbs. Belfast Bikes biggest fan. Drives a lot, cycles fair bit too. Let's be friends and share the busy roads safely. Doesn't like waste. McCausbot.

Let that settle in. £1.5m spent on Belfast Bikes over 2yrs. Wow. Good use of ratepayers money?

Registered as a vehicle/cycling accident in the stats no doubt
Royal Parks Police@MPSRoyal_Parks

Officers at #RichmondPark have been dealing with a road traffic collision between Kingston Gate and Ham Gate after the driver of a vehicle slowed to allow some geese to cross the road and a male on a bicycle collided into the rear of her vehicle and through the back window.

If the Glider introduces 12hr bus lanes 6 days per week, will this problem: A - get worse B - get much worse

@RobertLaverty12 @belfastcc I’m surprised, given how keen the councillors are for a selfie and virtue signalling, that there hasn’t been more marketing of their green credentials

So the delegates from NI and @belfastcc who went to COP26 to tell us how to reduce emissions. Did they get the boat or did they fly? 🤔

Another car saved from the ULEZ extension. This time, a Kia Pride, affectionately called ‘Beryl’ after the first owner. The lady I bought it off, Lindy, inherited the car back in the 90s. She was very sad to see it go, but is pleased it will live on. Only has 24,000 miles on it:

@RedBSierra @DarraghMcKenna @ChodofL TBF to Nichola Mallon and Claire Hannah for instance, they do cycle where possible and can be seen out and about, but it's not always practical with our weather or the most cost effective use of taxpayer funded time when you're a government minister.

@oharamal Has there been a reduction in car ownership along the existing Glider routes? (I don’t know, but guessing q needs asked before claiming benefit). I note that air quality pollutants on Antrim Rd is listed as “Low” & increased from mid Oct. Wood burning stoves causing that?

@NiGroanways Genuine answer is yes. Where public transport is efficient, reliable, cheap and fast people will be less reliant on cars. Over 1in 20 deaths in this city attributable to air pollution & transport as one of main causes. Need to do something. £30 per year in Rugby rd pilot scheme.

@oharamal Genuine questions here. Do you think more buses will make a sufficient enough difference to car ownership? Is that what you’re hearing on the doors from impacted residents? Will there be a cost to the residents for this parking scheme?

@NiGroanways If more people use public transport there will be less cars on the road. Also need residents parking schemes to stop displacement.

I see the Karen’s are now shouting at Marks and Spencer for daring to want to open shops.

I continue to dip in and out of here every so often due to covid. To be honest, there is nothing for me to say. The cycling lobby are having a melt down every day over minor things. Today was another great example. Dublin road?

@ShaunaReports Ask them why they aren’t considering an URBY type bus rather than the over priced bendy bus

I asked why we aren't working towards a totally integrated transport system where you can get off a @GliderBelfast and jump on a train. I'm told that for Glider2/3 to work for those that use it, they have decided it's best it doesn't meet with the transport hub in Belfast
