Cycling in London has soared to 1.5m journeys every day. 🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲🚲

We've grown London's Cycleway network from 90 to 430km

There’s no doubt that London is fast becoming a cycling city.

The pedestrianisation of Oxford St will be transformational - making it a safer and much more pleasant area to visit.

We've published our plans for the first phase of this exciting project.

Today is the World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims.

It was a privilege to join @RoadPeace at St James’s Piccadilly to remember all those who have been killed on London’s roads.

I’d like to thank those who bravely spoke & played music as moving tributes to the dead.

And there is a new 20mph speed limit on Manor Way, supported by physical traffic-calming measures, creating a safer, calmer environment where people feel confident to walk and cycle.

Good to see the new zebra crossing installed on Porlock Avenue, Harrow.

With TfL funding, the borough installed it outside Whitmore School to make it easier and safer for pupils, families, residents and others to walk to & from school and around the area.

Every death & serious injury on the roads brings devastating pain & trauma to victims, family, friends, communities & colleagues.

Our powerful new road safety campaign is shaped by real stories of loss - massive thanks to RoadPeace for working with us.

The York Way/Agar Grove/Brewery Road junction on the border of Camden & Islington is really unpleasant for people cycling & walking.

@camdencouncil.bsky.social, with support from Islington, is proposing significant safety improvements - have you say.
