I raised this issue back in October & people are still asking the same question, what is happening with these laneways?
I've now formally asked for a full report

“And every attempt to tighten the rules is met with cries of a “war on motorists”. This narrative must end.”
Absolutely, because without this, and without reallocation of public space away from private cars, the end result is a one-sided War on Vulnerable Road Users #SaferStreets
Is it dangerous or careless driving that kills over 1600 children and adults a year in our public spaces?
Drivers must understand
“ the concept that driving is a responsibility, not an entitlement”

Raised in Parliament the impact of Operations Boson and Costello in Bedfordshire.
Major arrests and a 15% drop in antisocial behaviour show what targeted policing can achieve.
Pushed for continued funding to keep our communities safe.

It’s normal to think no one else in your neighbourhood wants #SaferStreets.
Many do, they just don’t know how it will improve their quality of life.
We can show them.
Yesterday I joined Warwick police on Fusiliers Way for a #SpeedWatch after residents raised concerns, incl. a near miss. Thanks to PCSO Bolger & PCSO Quirke. Visible checks help deter speeding & improve. #RoadSafety #Warwick #SaferStreets
Finally. This is so good to see. 20mph not only makes mixed use roads safer and more accessible, the reduction in road noise from 30 to 20mph has background benefits for mental health - something that is often overlooked.

Charging just £5 makes drivers switch to public transport😱
Quick,let’s do that everywhere. We’ll soon have that transition to sustainable travel and bring emissions down.

Do you know the myth of the cyclists jumping the lights and putting drivers in danger
In real life it’s the driver who jumps the red light … and the cyclist who pays the price
#VisionZero #SaferStreets
And more proof that pavements are not only neglected but they are unsuitable for safe transport by pedestrians despite the amount of traffic they get

I thought there was some evidence the general standard *was* changing?
Issue remains that if someone is cycling dangerously, they’re chiefly a danger to themselves, if someone is driving dangerously they’re a danger to others #SaferStreets
Having to look both ways on a one way roads because I can't trust your driving #wrongway #pdxdriversaretheworst #saferstreets #20isfastenough
I don't think that's unique to local politics, sadly (see Lab resistance to beaver releases and swift bricks as the were 'Tory policies').
What *is* irritating at a local level is use of #SaferStreets as a wedge issue when there's a plethora of evidence that it just doesn't work electorally.
Thanks to all who joined us to stand up for safer streets in Cabra.
We want enforcement of existing planning conditions at the Go Petrol Station on Old Cabra Road.And safe cycle lines and crossing points for all
We’ll keep pushing for streets that put our community first. #SaferStreets #Cabra
Our working group met this morning to agree some key themes for the next 12 months. Priorities emerging from our last public event included #SaferStreets (slower speeds, pedestrian crossings, and access for those with mobility challenges).
Join us this Saturday as we stand together for safe cycling paths and safe crossings for our children and our community.
Let’s make Cabra safer for all.
