Remember - the deadline for the A259 consultation is this Sunday!
You may have seen that the council have announced their plan for the A259 from Fourth Avenue to the city's western boundary, where it can link to a similar route by @WSCCNews to Shoreham. The really good news is that the scheme extends beyond Hove lagoon!

🚲IMPORTANT!🚲 Please complete the government survey on their spending review by Feb 9th - it takes a few minutes. We need £2 billion invested annually - this would provide a £38 billion return on investment. Cycling UK have provided a guide and link here: action.cyclinguk.org/page/16…

Signs reminding drivers that we (people not in cars) are here, too! This was at the A23/Carden Avenue roundabout yesterday. #Brighton This junction urgently needs redesign as put forward in 2021. Extract from consultation leaflet shown. @TrevMu10 @BrightonHoveCC @CyclePatcham

We'd ask @BrightonHoveCC and @TrevMu10 to note this unsettling incident when considering the proposal to scrap the mandatory cycle lane on the A23 at Patcham. @CyclePatcham @Bricycles @WeAreCyclingUK @CANSEEngland
Sharing #cycling w #buses simply does not work. Another shocking crash leaving someone horribly injured just for using a #bike. chiswickw4.com/default.asp?s…
