At 9am this week, another 80,000+ bike journeys along the Embankment. To put this in perspective, there are more bike journeys per hour in this 1 lane than there are in the 4 motor vehicle lanes on the same route. If you want to get cities moving, build more cycle lanes @cs3cs6count.bsky.social

Update on the #CityOfLondon's project to refurb Blackfriars Bridge, route of cycleway #CS6 #C6.
#BBC's Ben Lynch quotes the number of motor vehicles crossing the bridge each day, but not bicycles 🤷

Blackfriars Bridge refurb set to resume in October

The work, costing £10.8m, is due to start in October but will not lead to the bridge being shut.

Last week, over 85,000 cycle journeys were recorded along the Embankment, ≈ 500 + journeys ph. Peak hours show ≈ 250 motor vehicles AM and ≈ 350 PM, significantly fewer than the number of cyclists. Time to add another cycle lane for more efficient transport @willnorman.co.uk @london.gov.uk

Bob From Accounts 🚲 @bobfromaccounts.bsky.social · 11d

Should be 200,000+ cycle journeys today in 2.5 weeks on the Embankment since the counter was fixed on the 24th of September. Chefs kiss London. @cs3cs6count.bsky.social
