60,000 homes in Walthamstow were exposed to illegal levels of pollution in 2007. Thanks to #wfminiholland , that has reduced to 6000. CPZs with emissions-based charging, timed road closures that support local shops, handing space to pedestrians & cyclists. It works! #Labourcycles
Hard to imagine this many people visiting the shops, restaurants, furniture stores, butchers and cafes today on Orford Road if it wasn’t closed to through traffic #wfminiholland
Rather than fight against change, ask our decision makers to create places everyone can enjoy #wfminiholland
Such a buzz seeing normal people cycling normally on lea Bridge Road these days. Just run of the mill amazing! #wfminiholland
Yes, it’s really grim up north 🤦♂️. If people actually came to Waltham Forest they would see it’s more than a couple of LTNs, but a network of people friendly streets with community green spaces, safe cycle routes on main roads and secure cycle parking #wfminiholland
Unfortunately old filters aren't as accessible as new ones #familycycling #wfminiholland #BeyondTheBicycle

When this scheme in Orford Road #WFMiniHolland 1st opened, folks marched a coffin here predicting death of trade on this street. Several businesses here said losing parking out front would end them. That was 8 years ago. This was a mild March Sunday. Change is hard but worth it.
Then and Now IV - Narrow, split footway, overgrown & perpetually wet, transformed, Picture looking towards border with Hackney. #PassingtheBatton #wfminiholland
Three cargo bikes (none of which are mine) and at least a hundred more kids' cycles parked outside my children's primary school yesterday morning.
This isn't Amsterdam. This is an ordinary outer London suburb that has invested in active transport. #wfminiholland .
#ThenandNow - Continuous footway & protected #cycleway on Lea Bridge Road at Essex Road #E10 . #wfminiholland
