A decade ago, London had 90km of Cycleways. Today, that figure stands at 450km.
More Londoners than ever are choosing to cycle, proof that investment in safer cycling infrastructure is making a real difference.

Not one transport question at last week's GM Mayor's hustings.
Nothing on the Bee Network, clean air, walking or cycling - despite transport being one of the biggest parts of the job.
This is your chance to change that 🧵

It's been a joy to work with @TamesideCouncil to document this brilliant school street scheme in Mossley.
The important messages for these projects are always the ones shared by the children we speak to.
Great to see the cross-party political support for these schemes, too!
Tfgm are surveying people who are walking, wheeling and cycling along the Talbot Road corridor this week. They will be at various spots on the route so please do stop if you have time and take part in the survey or take a leaflet from them to do the survey on line later
Look for the high viz clothing at the following locations: Jtn of Seymour Grove /Talbot Rd
Jtn of City Road/Old Chester Road
Jtn of Davyhulme Road East/A56 Stretford
Jtn of Great Stone Road/Talbot Road, Stretford
The parade of shops on the corner of Barton Road and Kingsway looks so much better now. Cycle stands were installed a while ago and now planters and bollards have been installed. It's a shame though that money has to be spent to stop pavement parking.
Before and after
ALT Pavement obstructed by large vehicle
ALT Private hire vehicle parked on the pavement. Bicycle locked to a lamppost
ALT Cycles locked to cycle stands, planters with flowers in, bollards to stop pavement parking

It’s match day at the Etihad Stadium tomorrow [4pm KO], as @ManCity face Aston Villa. Weighing up your travel options?
🚋 We'll be operating trams every 7.5 mins between the city centre and Etihad Campus.
🚍 With 18 routes on the Match Day Bus network, consider catching a Match Day Bus to the stadium.
🚶The walking route from the city centre takes around 25 minutes.

#PetrolPrices are up 30p/litre and it's no wonder nearly 1:3 drivers is considering switching to cycling for short journeys. Building #ActiveTravel infrastructure enables people to make cheaper transport choices @wearecyclingUK @walkridegm
