This isn't Amsterdam. (Honest!)
We successfully campaign for more cycle lanes, school streets, zebra crossings, 20mph speed limits and parking controls, all of which can make school zones safer places to walk, ride or scoot

🏫An effective school street for every school

😮 A sobering statistic for Road Safety Week... In the UK, SUVs are three times more likely to kill a child under the age of 10 and heavier cars are more likely to be involved in fatal collisions.

It took over 6 years of campaigning to get in place, but now ..around 2km of street space, across 3 roads filter what was once 800 cars per hour from creating road danger and pollution around the school.
Now all these kids.. have safe and healthy journeys to school.

Half term is so visibly over, right?
🚸 And it has a HUGE knock-on effect on traffic.
🚗 In some areas the school run has been reported to increase pollution and bus times by a staggering 50% compared to school holidays! How were your local roads last week?

🚸A school street closes roads to cars at drop-off and pick-up to protect pupils on foot, bike or scooter from speeding cars and pollution. Ours closes three!
🙌 There are now 900+ of them in the country!

🧁We took our Cargos & Cakes event series to Twickenham, Richmond and it did not disappoint…. !
Lots of parents stopped by to learn more about what cargo life could look like for their families (and pets!).
Fantastic to see such great support for #cargobikes from Richmond council.

Lambeth #carfreeday was a blast! We launched the first event in our Lambeth Cargo Collective programme.
Our Cargos & Cakes events are opportunities for parents to meet cargo-biking families to find out all about them and try them out.
Great to see so many people giving them a go!

Brilliant to join up with Rosendale Clean Air on a glorious #bikebus.
Hundreds of children cycle to school in West Dulwich & face close passes and road danger daily.
These children deserve their bike lane - @rezinachowdhury.bsky.social

It can be easy to think of the school run as an intractable problem that can’t be solved.
And then you go to France, Bordeaux to be precise, and it’s school run time, but there’s not really any traffic, and everything seems very calm……
