West Kent Road Club wkrc.org.uk tell it like it is. Interesting long article with comment from Cycling UK kentonline.co.uk/dartford/news/…
standard.co.uk/comment/killer… Cyclists are the wrong target if we're aiming to end the carnage on the roads. Chris Boardman also speaks of his mother who was killed when out cycling.
There will be a series of events and activities in and around #Faversham throughout June, aiming to enable more people to choose #ActiveTravel for short everyday trips.
All part of Faversham TC's #ActiveTravel month.

Whoever gets into power after the election, weakened planning policy can take transport in the wrong direction, accommodating more car use with more expensive road-building. Quiz your candidates. #ActiveTravel
Drivers failing to look properly is the number one factor in road traffic collisions involving a cyclist in Surrey.
When you next approach a junction, take a second. LOOK! #HabitsForLife !
My interview with the Evening Standard's Ross Lydall on the need to fund cycling as we do our roads. The National Cycle Network is incredible, but active transport shouldn't be left to chance - it needs to be funded properly, like any other essential infrastructure
It's taken four years & a High Court challenge by Transport Action Network to get this doc made public!
Today Department for Transport finally published modelling, showing it knew all along it wasn't investing enough in active travel. 🧵 1/
Great article from PoliticsHome highlighting the importance of election candidates speaking on cycling 🗳️
'I encourage every candidate standing at the next election to include walking or cycling on their leaflets.'
'People want to cycle more.'

Here we go! The #GeneralElection has been called for 4 July! 🗳
Over the next six weeks we'll be working hard to ensure all candidates commit to providing real choice in how we travel through more investment in cycling & walking!🚴🚶♀️

Had great fun joining in with the #KidicalMass cycle ride in #Eastbourne today, organised by Bespoke Cycle Group. Huge turnout with some potent messages for Eastbourne BC & East Sussex County Council to ponder. Town desperately needs safe #cycling infrastructure & more #ActiveTravel options.
This local report looks like you're setting up the council for criticism when this is actually a sensible public safety measure, Emma Elgee. 20's Plenty for Us

The widespread scams that keep dangerous drivers driving need to be stopped, Mark Harper!
Like NIP farms (unbelievably easy to dupe police/courts) and deliberately obscured number plates.

Speeding, phone-using drivers dump their points on the innocent! 😮
A massive scam!
Services widely advertised!
If you don't know about 'NIP (Notice of Intended prosecution) farms' this explains. We need action now! Mark Harper Cycling UK bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
