Last day to input into Chatsworth Rd consultation! After a long delay following promises made 2+ years ago, this scheme is a watering down of the council's previously stated ambitions to extend the coverage of low traffic neighbourhoods across the borough. consultation.hackney.gov.uk/streetscene/...

If you're able, please join @newhamcyclists.bsky.social for a protest ride, following the tragic death of a young man cycling in Stratford. Monday, 24th February Gather Greenway/High St junction 6:15pm - 7:30pm Please register if you plan to attend: lcc.org.uk/events/newha...

Call out, pls share. There is a ghost bike on Morning Lane, Hackney to commemorate Brixton Brady, who was sadly killed in 2006. Hackney Council needs to remove the cage the bike is attached to & would like to connect with friends/family to arrange a sensitive removal. To be put in touch, DM us.

KIDICALMASS IS BACK!!! 23rd March. 11am. National Theatre. WE WANT SPACE FOR CYCLING! Dress code: Intergalactic πŸŒ™ πŸ’« 🚲 🚲 🚲 @ibikelondon.bsky.social @cleancitiescampaign.org @zeroemissions.bsky.social @kidicalmasslond.bsky.social www.ticketsource.co.uk/ibikelondon/...

Tonight 5pm: free online Q&A on applying for Β£2500 grants from the Lime x LCC #ShareTheJoy Fund including two successful previous applicants lcc.org.uk/events/share...

Tom is a bike mechanic who does a lot of charity work supporting cycling organisations and events. He recently had all his tools stolen from his car. There is a GoFundMe to get him back on his feet. www.gofundme.com/f/k6g8zs-hel...

Cyclists will be kept safe from being crushed by turning buses at @hackneycouncil.bsky.social's Β£20m flagship new junction at Pembury Circus, by errr, oh, wait... paint?, and a junction-capacity-reducing early release light. Oh. So not safe then. Coroners take note.

@hackneycouncil.bsky.social claim to be improving the pedestrian experience at Pembury Circus. BUT, their design removes a crossing at Amhurst Road which was highlighted in the initial Road Safety Audit as introducing a new danger because it is *known* that peds will move on their desire line (1/n)

Get back into cycling and get your bike checked for free by a mechanic on Wednesday at Goldsmith Row #HaggerstonPark @thwheelers.bsky.social @hackneylcc.bsky.social @towerhamletsnow.bsky.social @columbiaroadmarket.bsky.social

Friends and supporters: the white memorial bike to honour Gao Gao had been returned to a spot just off Whiston Road. (The bike was removed by Hackney Council as they needed to replace the damaged tree.) R.I.P. Gao Gao

Protest ride Stratford High Street 24th February, 6:15pm. Please register on @londoncycling.bsky.social website if you plan on coming: lcc.org.uk/events/newha... Join us to demand action from TfL and Newham Council so that no-one else gets killed or maimed while cycling on Stratford High Street.

This is why we campaign to ensure that HGVs and cyclists do not mix, especially at junctions and where HGVs may be turning. @londoncycling.bsky.social

Yesterday we were distraught to hear that a woman cycling was involved in a crash with a lorry at the intersection of Bush Road & Mare Street. We're relieved to hear the update from the Met Police that her injuries are not life-threatening or life-changing. www.hackneygazette.co.uk/news/2489156...

Around Hackney: Bodney Rd has reopened at the completed Downs Park Rd bridge works. The apparent modal filter could do with new signs. @hackney_cycling

"You take your life in your hands." "Avoid it at all costs if you can." We appeal to Hackney, Islington & Haringey councils to make Finsbury Park safer #DangerousJunctions www.hamhigh.co.uk/news/2486269... @hackneycouncil.bsky.social @islington-council.bsky.social @cycleislington.uk
