Will #WiltshireCouncil have an Active Travel and Cycling Champion I wonder?
Big news for me! I've just been announced as the Active Travel and Cycling Champion for Oxfordshire County Council.
As this is an Oxfordshire-wide role, I'm very keen to know more about rural routes especially.
Shout out to the Lib Dems for appointing an opposition councillor - they're serious. 💚

Following a report of tree obstruction and broken stile to #WiltshireCouncil, both issues have been resolved. Trees removed and stile and steps rebuilt. It's a good feeling to know that I can make a difference for my community and the system works.😊

There is room on public highways to accommodate all users equitably. It just needs a different perspective, imagination and reallocation of public space. Removing just one car storage bay has benefited many more residents who walk or run. @cycledevizes.bsky.social #WiltshireCouncil
On site this morning checking out some completed (almost) schemes. Some before and afters for you:

Stop with the balanced approach to LTP4 #WiltshireCouncil and prioritise active travel to decarbonise transport in Wiltshire. @cycledevizes.bsky.social @wiltshiregreens.bsky.social
One of the MOST IMPORTANT THINGS your city could do to become more healthy, sustainable, livable, affordable, equitable, successful — stop pretending to “balance” transportation modes, and commit to PRIORITIZING walking/rolling, biking, public transit. HT @dublincycling.bsky.social’s graphic

This is how to achieve #visionzero #WiltshireCouncil it needs actions to limit car use, remove space for cars and increase parking charges. Investment for alternatives like separate cycle lanes and regular, cheap buses. Let’s see if those delivery plans for LTP4 contain these measures?

How Helsinki and Oslo cut pedestrian deaths to zero
After years of committed action, neither city recorded a single pedestrian fatality in 2019
