Are our Streets Safe enough for #cycling ?
With £6m pledged to improve infrastructure in #Bristol the subject is an increasingly hot topic.

Instead of viewing #streets as spaces to move vehicles quickly through, what if we reimagined these valuable slices of real estate as places to build community, encourage healthier lifestyles, improve air quality, and support local economies?

I've just signed @friends_earth's petition to stop a new coal mine from being built in Cumbria.
If we’re serious about tackling the climate crisis then one new coal mine is a coal mine too many.
Will you add your voice too? #NoNewCoal act.friendsoftheearth.uk/pet…

How do cities turn this moment into a permanent, pedal-powered movement?
Infrastructure.
Infrastructure.
Infrastructure.
Build a cohesive network that enables people to travel from anywhere to everywhere.
We can assure you it’s possible.

Cycling isn’t inherently a “macho high-speed hobby”. Decades of car-centric street design made it that way.
In cities that have reversed this trend, cycling is a means of emancipation and participation in society, for demographic groups long excluded from most mobility networks. – at Delft, Nederland

The work commute is statistically the longest and least frequent type of journey we make in a day. Yet it dominates transport planning.
Now more than ever, cities must build cycle networks to support recurring local trips: to the corner store, café, community center, or school. – at Delft, Nederland
Brilliant clip @beardedjourno so great to see them cycling through the city centre. 😀😀
At the beginning of this year there was no way that I would have felt comfortable cycling with my five- and nine-year-old daughters from Hotwells to St Paul’s. @BristolCouncil, keep up the great work encouraging cycling and do please make these pop-up lanes permanent.

What a great day you had for the ride. Looks wonderful.
Super sunny #bicycle #kidicalmass adventures in #Bristol. We had a small group and managed ca 20 km, mostly on traffic free routes to make it possible for the 5 year old too. We need more #spaceforcycling and the next generation. #getoutside #diversifyoutdoors

"The pandemic has shown that access to green space in Bristol is not equal and that needs to change."
Join us on 1 October to hear from @ZoeBanksGross on how #COVID19 has highlighted how we need safe outdoor spaces now more than ever: bit.ly/AHSCConvo

Doing my local shopping is dangerous without #socialdistancing measures on St Mark's Road. Knowing cases of Covid19 in @BristolCouncil #Bristol are rising & I have a higher risk because of my #BAME background, I hope we get bollards or other measures back. Reported @fixmystreet
This is great! Yes we are all multi-modal. Let's get active. Pogo stick anyone?! (At least, I think that's what it is 😉) @SustransSW @BristolCycling @LifeCycleUKteam @AllianceWalking @Active_Bristol
