After 43 years I am leaving London. A lot has changed since 1980
Air quality is better
Some decent cycle infrastructure
Cargobikes everywhere
Vision Zero
and even the unthinkable, the Clerkenwell Road open to cycles only, even though not much of a Boulevard 😅.
Well done LDN!
This obstruction to the cycle lane on Queen Victoria Street, in front of Blackfriars Station is very dangerous.
@CityPolice can you please remove it?
@cityoflondon
The idiots at @CanaryWharfGrp are making life difficult for citizens who try to navigate around the Thames Path bridge, scandalously closed by the idiots at @CanalRiverTrust.

Yet another case that shows that road crime should not be tried by jury.

In less than 4 years, five ordinary citizens killed by drivers in a 1 km stretch of road in Mitcham
The latest one:

How can a drunk, hit-and-run driver who killed a young woman be charged for causing death by careless driving, rather than the more serious "dangerous driving"?

Makes a mockery of the whole Regeneration team at the Council who have spent years proposing to open up more Thames path access but have not delivered anything yet
Given the huge £ amounts paid for by developers to improve infrastructure, I am sure Council could lend some to CRT
.@TowerHamletsNow refuses to resolve the problem on the Thames Path, where a vital link has been closed by @CanalRiverTrust . The latter refuse to fix it in the next six months, and the Council refuses to step in.
Utter contempt for active travel

On Friday I saw a thief breaking a bicycle lock with angle grinder in front of the Tower. I dialled 999. By the time I got to the operator, the thief had broken the lock and was on his way. I followed him while talking to 999.

The operator still had no clue of where we were.
Ten minutes later @CityPolice called me. Finally I was speaking to someone who knew the topography. I could at least tell him exactly where the theft occurred.
3/
@MayorofLondon , shouldn't 999 operators pass the Knowledge and be equipped with software that helps them quickly locate where the caller is located?
It could be a matter of life and death.
