And the ward results are in!
First up, Abbey.
Thanks Rosemary Ansell 🔶 (LD), Naomi Bennett 🟢 (Green), Simon Brignell ⭐ (Comm), & Ben Cartwright 🌹 (Lab) for pledging to make our streets safe for children!
No response from the Conservative candidate 🤔
Really disappointing news that the case against the Mill Road bridge bus gate will now go ahead to a full hearing, causing more months of delays.
Reminder:
🤕 Mill Road is the most dangerous road in Cambridgeshire
👍72% of local people support closing the bridge
Here is the full judgment in the latest stage of the Mill Road bridge judicial review application. The case will now proceed to a further hearing and the bridge will stay open to cars in the meantime. assets.caselaw.nationalarchi…

Here are the results of our survey on making our streets safer for children.
Of those candidates who responded, the vast majority support all our asks: 🟢 @CambridgeGreens 100%
🌹@CambridgeLabour 98%
🔶 @CambsLibDems 98%
However...
🟦 @CambridgeTories 0%
Why didn't the Tories respond? Is it because they knew that they would have to answer no to many (all?) of our questions and so decided it was better not to answer... 🤔

Cambridge Safe Streets for Kids retweeted
Great turnout for today’s Kidical Mass bike ride in Bristol - a global movement where children and families take to the streets en-masse to show the demand for more space and safer streets for children to cycle
Great to see so much support for active travel from local election candidates in response to the @camcycle survey!
