How far do you walk in c London? Is it time we stretch our legs to 20/30 mins: the final leg from a mainline station or even the entire commute? Our new map, out tomorrow, shows how a 2km walk doesn't take much longer than the Tube or taxi and is way more healthy & enjoyable.

THREAD: I’ve done a lot of interviews about low traffic neighbourhoods over the past few weeks.
The most common question I get asked is how do you know this will work? How do you know this won’t make traffic worse on other roads?
Here’s the truth: I don’t know.
hi @TNTUKOfficial. I appreciate you have a job to do but parking like this blocks access for wheelchair users and young children in prams and puts people at risk by forcing them into the road. Can you feedback to your drivers please? @TNTUKCare

To commemorate the 75th Anniversary of VJ Day we flew the Lancaster, 3 Spitfires and a Hurricane over the National Memorial Arboretum. The snippet is from the approach of the flypast. #VJDay75 #LestWeForget @Disco_BBMF @Seb_Lanc99 @BBMF_Ernie93 @Farrell3Neil @BBMF_Sugden

A little reminder of why we are doing this and who it’s for 👇
Today's announcement from @10DowningStreet is a great start, but for us to really succeed we need to hear more from people saying yes to better health, cleaner air and safer streets - and less from the NIMBYs standing in the way.
Be a YIMBY and #ChooseCycling 👍

It's going to be very interesting to see what happens or not with 'Gear Change' and cycling in the UK in the coming months and years. One thing that most need to understand is that it's not about more Bradley Wiggins on the road.

I love the growing number of 'Streetaries' in London. This one is in Winchmore Hill in Enfield. What a great way to safely help people return and enjoy their local shops, cafes and restaurants #StreetspaceLDN #StreetariesLDN @EnfieldCouncil

RAF Coningsby will be night-flying this week. Operating at night is a perishable skill that has to be practiced and refreshed. Apologies in advance for any disturbance, and thank you for your patience and support. @RoyalAirForce Royal Air Force
