That's greatbut...1) much stronger, faster action is needed to regulate the spread of SUVs in London, 2) the only acceptable leavel of injuries and death on our roads is zero, so the work is not done yet!

Great infographic! While there is still a long way to go to make London truly friendly to pedestrians, cyclists, and public transport users, it's important to celebrate all the good work done so far! πŸ™Œ

This data is powerful and should prompt stronger, faster action to reduce air pollution everywhere!

Really glad to have been invited to this TfL roundtable about transport in Camden

Great to hear what’s working well and have an open conversation about what could be better.

Our two main priorities are still the same: more action on school-run traffic and an improved service on the 603 bus!

Eton Avenue Area Safe and Healthy Streets Scheme - We Are Camden - Citizen Space Find and participate in consultations run by We Are Camden.

Given how many schools are nearby, any change that makes it safer to walk and cycle, and reduces air and noise pollution, is a positive step in our view. If you’d like to share your views, go to:

Some of the elements we particularly welcome are:

- Raised and continuous crossings: making it easier and safer to cross, especially for children

- Wider pavements: encouraging walking by making it safer and more comfortable

- More greenery: improving the street and helping climate resilience

@camdencouncil.bsky.social is consulting until Sunday 15 February on proposed changes to the Eton Avenue area.

We’ve submitted a response in support of the scheme, which we believe would make the area safer, healthier and more pleasant. Not just for pedestrians and cyclists, but for all road users.

We rightly worry about our children’s mental health, but sometimes forget that small, everyday choices, like walking or cycling to school, can make a big difference, and are easy to build into daily life. 😊

The number of US-style pickup trucks on UK roads has almost doubled in the past decade. This is nothing short of terrifying.

With bonnet heights over 1m, young children can be completely invisible in front of them. We need stricter rules and a more honest conversation about the risks they pose.
