Conclusion
The takeaway is simple: to hit net zero, UK transport policy must prioritize modal shift. Reopening ready-made hubs like Ashford is a practical, high-impact step toward building a sustainable rail network that competes directly with aviation.

Safer bike storage at train railway stations, tram interchanges and bus stations is a must if we want to encourage #ModalShift and transport #Decarbonisation
Labour has rejected my proposal for secure bike lockers at train stations, a simple step to make cycling safer.
I have resubmitted the proposal for the next stage.
In the meantime, I need your support.

The single biggest intervention we can make to promote #ModalShift is to build safe and continuous #ActiveTravel infrastructure - it’s cheap, and makes our towns and cities healthier and quieter
5% fewer cars would make a big difference

🧵 1/2. According to today's transport stats, cycling continued to account for just 1% of all kilometres travelled in Great Britain in 2023. Together, we can change that! By making cycling a bigger part of everyday journeys, we can create cleaner, greener, healthier communities.

Fietsbrug over Schelde in Antwerpen zal kosten wat ze moet kosten, ongeveer jaarbudget van alle andere fietsinfrastructuur in Vlaanderen. Brug heeft iets (11%) meer modalshift potentieel dan kabelbaan maar is drie keer duurder.
Zouden we dat budget niet beter investeren in openbaar vervoer?

Antwerpen, Zaventem en Leuven krijgen hogesnelheidstrein naar Duitsland
Er zijn plannen voor een nieuwe hogesnelheidstreinverbinding met Duitsland. Die zou vertrekken in Antwerpen, en via het station van Brussels Airport in Zaventem, Leuven en Luik rijden naar de Duitse steden Aken en Keulen. Dat blijkt uit een aanvraag die werd ingediend bij de regulator, het Federaal Agentschap voor Regulering van Transport.
