Lewisham Council has unveiled proposals to reimagine the borough’s roads and streets in order to reduce air pollution, improve road safety and encourage more people to walk, cycle or use public transport.

Barking & Dagenham school pupils are encouraging their parents and carers to swap the car for the cycle, scooter or a walk.

Traffic restrictions introduced on Britain’s first 24/7 ‘zero-emission street’, described by the City of London Corporation as ‘pollution busting’, could return permanently under new plans.

The London Road Safety Council (LRSC) is delighted to announce a partnership with TIER, the world’s largest shared micro-mobility provider, to co-operate on safety issues in London and sponsor the LRSC website.

Santander Cycles play a hugely important role in making cycling more accessible to Londoners, enabling people to choose a healthy and sustainable form of transport.

Views are being sought on ‘once in a generation’ plans to make St Paul’s safer for people who walk and cycle and to introduce a greener, more pleasant environment.

Six new parklets have been installed and opened in Hackney, providing space on the street for people to sit and relax while enjoying the area. 

Main road traffic in Hackney is 6% lower in 2022 than it was last year, a new analysis of transport statistics shows.

TfL and Southwark Council have expanded the Santander Cycles scheme in the borough, with seven new docking stations now open for local residents and visitors. 

TfL has awarded more than £400,000 to new projects which aim to increase participation in walking and cycling among traditionally underrepresented groups.
