Londoner, walks, rides a bicycle, drives a car, often lost.
Still no idea what an "eco-caramel coconut latte" is.

5/ On Wednesday 30 April'25, the cycleway #C3 #CS3 counter on London's Victoria Embankment recorded 17,121 cycle journeys: 2nd busiest day so far this year.
Thurs 1st May's scores, with another 16k+ journeys, via @lastnotlost.bsky.social 👇

There were plenty of folk pootling around after 9pm, although Northumberland Avenue was closed by Met Plod which limited access to Embankment. Guess the counter will finish the day at 16.6/16.7 which is still astonishing by previous standards.
Have a fun day Friday.

The auditors should confirm another 17k day yesterday ... absolutely ridiculous 🤯

2/ Hat-tip to @diamondgeezer.bsky.social for spotting this one.
I guess @clondoner92.bsky.social, who's normally generous with sharing interesting FOIs, was blessedly too innocent to understand the subject matter 😊

I use one.network to check street works as it is usually comprehensive (the TfL roadworks database can be hit and miss)

2/ #SGN have also blocked the Merton High Street cycle track further down by the Haydon's junction, without any dismount signs or permit numbers

Don't forget the conspiracy-spreading anti-ULEZ Together crowd who are highly representative of a ethnically diverse city where the average age is 38

Folk like @citylcc.bsky.social will know better, but I'm struggling to think of any floating bus stops on City managed streets, although a few on TfL red routes. Might be some in the design for eg Queen Victoria St but I don't recall latest designs.

I'm assuming red lines = TfL but happy to be told otherwise.
No problem with a better crossing but this looks like a cheap job.
Could have lost the central hatching, widened both pavements over say 50m, kept lanes in place for all etc.

Good gig tho, you churn out the same stuff every week, probably using an AI bot by now, and get paid for it.
And complain to your mates about being "cancelled by the woke".

<Wonders who wrote that article ...?>
<Goes and checks ...>
Yep, as I thought - the guy who has written the same anti-cycling, anti-LTN article for the #FarageGraph every week for five years.

The Thames Clipper website is giving me £5.90 cash/£4.75 travel card for the Rotherhithe - Canary Wharf crossing.
I've long believed this is per mile the most expensive ferry journey in Europe.

An article on RTS early years in London
And some personal reflections.

Have just received disclosure of #spycops reports on RTS re Public Inquiry into Undercover Policing. Yet to delve into it…

@billhulley.bsky.social Alex wonders if you & co have a timed GPX for research purposes?

Even the web page with the status of the Greenwich and Woolwich lifts hasn't been updated since 16 April

Agree about safety risks.
I can see why GLA/TfL wouldn't want to take control of bridges and tunnels, but there is a role for the Mayor to point to the £millions of S106 etc funds in both Greenwich and Newham and tell them to spend, else apply other consequences.

The Marathon organisers have included the Greenwich Tunnel as a viable link for spectators on Sunday, and I thought good luck with that

Lots of good stats in the #CityofLondon 's report, but the numbers for the bridges are especially impressive.
Finishing cycleway #C4 as a SE corridor has had a huge impact on cycle traffic on London Bridge.

You're not missing much, lots of usual #Faragegraph bigotry, along with Holland being flat, the Dutch eat too much butter, and lots of arguments about health services.

2/ (Bi)Cycles are now the dominant mode of motorised traffic over the bridges into the City of London:
> Blackfriars, cycleway #C6 #CS6: 13.3k/day, 40%
> London, extending #C4, 19.7k/day, 57%
> Southwark, cycleway #CS7, 5.2k/day, 36%
