Fabulous #kidicalmasslond rtoday from St Paul’s to Marylebone. Amazing to be part of the London Cycling Festival. Huge thanks to marshals, @ibikelondon.bsky.social , @londoncycling.bsky.social @zeroemissions.bsky.social @cleancitiescampaign.org and everyone else who helped. Well done all the kids!

Back-to-school season is the perfect time to think about what kind of space children have outside the school gates.

Fewer cars = more safety, more calm, and more freedom to walk or cycle. But too often, it’s not the reality.

Let’s add safer streets to the back-to-school checklist ✅

Three times more Brits support reopening international rail stations 🚅 than expanding airports ✈️.

These striking figures come from YouGov polling commissioned by @transportenvironment.org and @cleancitiescampaign.org.

It's time for #TrainNotPlane.

Diesel vans are now the single largest transport source of NOx pollution in central London - with 18 diesel vans for every 1 electric van on the road.

@zakbond.bsky.social from @cleancitiescampaign.org argues it’s time for a Zero Emission Zone for Freight.

🚸 A #schoolstreet isn’t only about safer roads…

In Paris, surface temperatures on some redesigned streets were found to be, on average, 5°C cooler than on nearby roads (and in some cases up to 12°C cooler!) 🌡️

School streets are a first step towards more liveable neighbourhoods 🌈💚 #StreetsForKids

The greening of urban logistics in the Netherlands is accelerating! 🚚

The Netherlands started 2025 with 14 municipal zero-emission zones (ZEZ). Since then, that number has grown to 20 - and the momentum isn’t slowing down 📈

Car manufacturers are profiting massively from producing these more expensive, oversized vehicles.

⚡ Europe’s cities need more public EV charging - but targeted planning could reduce the number of chargers they need to build by more than a quarter.

Our new research compares Greater London, Madrid, Paris and Warsaw, four cities with very different networks and starting points.

New research highlights the huge health and economic value of cleaner air as a result of the UK’s planned net zero policies.

In London, this could mean over 9 million working days gained and more than 44,000 avoided premature deaths.

Net zero measures will deliver cleaner air that could provide £7.7 billion boost to UK economy by 2050 - Clean Air Fund
Decarbonisation across transport, buildings, industry and power generation will bring air quality gains and an economic boost to the UK.

Really enjoying Day 2 of the @cleancitiescampaign.org Curious Cities Assembly. Earlier we heard from @aliceferguson.bsky.social, @ianwalker.bsky.social and Tim Gill about how children are the most impacted but the least considered when it comes to our streets and public realm.

Watching the excellent @cleancitiescampaign.org session this morning talking about 'the child lens'. @londoncycling.bsky.social Women's Network, talks about 'the female lens'.

Other lenses are available but stuck in a drawer. This is urgent ! @ianwalker.bsky.social

European cities are set to lose up to 14% of their on-street parking by 2040 due to growing car size.

Our new report with @transportenvironment.org shows how ‘right-sizing’ policies to get new cars back to 2015 levels could reverse this trend.
