Solve The School Run

@BobFromAccounts Where do you live? This is the dream.

The upside of living in a walkable city, not owning a car, and only relying on great public transport, walking, and cycling during a global fuel shortage.

@RobertKwolek Such a nice idea - and the cycle lane is still in a straight line 🤩

There's a pavement near me which the tree roots have seriously raised up. One has to step over it. Many councils would consider chopping the tree down. Instead, why not fill the area with bountiful planting and create a pavement bypass. More function and more beauty.

Guangzhou isn’t just building bike lanes. It's building a healthy, liveable city. With 6,000 km. of greenways, it boasts one of the world's largest cycling networks. What was once overlooked is now impossible to ignore: a vital link in their modern, multimodal transport system.

This is not acceptable. #saferstreets #schoolrun #carspreading

Noticed quieter roads this week? 🚸 The school Christmas holidays have a HUGE knock-on effect on traffic. 🚗 In some areas, the #schoolrun has been reported to increase pollution and bus times by 50% compared to holidays. This has to change. Follow us! #SolveTheSchoolRun

@Boenau What a lovely sight!

When half of America's car trips are less than 3 miles, it doesn't take much to convert car trips to bike trips.

@SolveRosendale @clairekholland Thanks, it is positive but listed as 'Amber' and 'subject to resource availability' so still lots to do to try and move this forward. Please help spread the word about the petition - ipetitions.com/petition/a-cal…

@transformTH @clairekholland This is great news - keep up the good work :)

Progress! Pleased to see Tulse Hill gyratory in TfL’s Safe and Healthy Streets update, promising feasibility design work in 2025/26. This follows our campaign & a meeting between @clairekholland & Cllr Chawdury with TfL Commissioner to push for investment. Momentum is building!

@GreenSchoolRuns Thank you! It's great isn't it?

@solveschoolrun Love this! 👏 Such a clear, engaging explainer, and brilliant to see Newsround tackling SUVs and street safety in a way that really resonates with children! Huge congrats to Solve the School Run for getting this conversation into the mainstream. 🚸🚲

📣 We were on BBC's Newsround this week! 🙃 The children's news show ran a story on SUVs with Solve the School Run and it's honestly one of the best SUV explainers we've seen! Catch the full segment here: bbc.co.uk/newsround/vide… #carspreading #SUV #saferstreets
