London fields lido, November 2011

What a gorgeous perfect late Autumn day.

Cally Park, Islington.

Make London Safe for Cycling

London Cycling Campaign | Campaigns | Key campaigns | Bow roundabout Dear Mayor, I'm appalled at the two cyclist fatalities that have taken place recently at Bow roundabout. I'm demanding you implement an urgent and effective redesign of this lethal junction, so no more families suffer the tragic losses of the last few weeks. Yours sincerely David

There is so much more that could be done to encourage, support and make cycling safer

Consultation on Islington's draft Transport Strategy Dear Consultation on Islington's draft Transport Strategy, I am very concerned at the lack of ambition in this, in particular there should be more to support cyclists. There should be a Target for commutes by cycle. There should be a commitment to reduce air pollution. Speed is a killer on Islington roads, the 20mph speed restriction should be enforced more. There aren't enough secure places to lock up bikes, particulary at tube stations like Cally Road. We could also benefit from more Tfl hire bikes, particulary at hubs and parks, like Caledonian Park with the Tennis Centre and football pitches. As a Holloway resident, both holloway and seven sisters roads are nightmares. There needs to be more bike lanes. There is so much more that could be done to encourage, support and make cycling safer
