An important point made by former active travel minister Trudy Harrison today: In schools, when you ask how many kids cycle to school: no hands go up. When you ask how many kids would like to cycle to school: all the hands go up. 🙋♀️🙋🏻♂️ We owe it to kids to enable them.
To create a more equal future, we know we need to make Islington a greener, healthier place – which is why we’re transforming our streets. So, we’ve recently announced exciting changes between Nag’s Head and York Way! 🎉 (1/2)
