Between 2022 and 2024, cargo bike journeys in London rose by 104% 😲 

To maintain momentum, London needs to ensure the right infrastructure and incentives are in place. More space for safe cycling and cargo bike parking would make it easier for businesses to opt for pedal power.

Our panels explored how to help Londoners access EVs and how to decarbonise commercial fleets through electric freight & e-cargo bikes.

Thanks to Westminster City Council for hosting, and to everyone who joined us to keep London’s clean transport transition moving forward! ⏩

We hope that other cities across the UK will learn from Cardiff’s leadership and take action on #carspreading.

A special thanks to Helen Edwards, whose story shows the real impact of oversized SUVs, and to our partners who helped make this change possible 💚

Why does it matter ❓ Oversized SUVs take up more space and pose a higher risk to pedestrians, especially children.

Our research shows that the higher the vehicle front, the more likely a person will be knocked under the car, rather than pushed to the side.

This means that larger, heavier vehicles will pay more to park - a common-sense step towards cleaner air and safer streets.

In a consultation by the Council, 2/3 of respondents agreed that bigger vehicles should pay more for permits ✅

This marks a clear step toward linking parking policy with sustainability and better use of public space.

By basing fees on vehicle size and type, the city can tackle #carspreading, encourage smaller, cleaner vehicles, and reclaim space for people.
