Spotted these E-Bike/scooters around Vietnam and think they're amazing. Storage space and extensible for families. Shame that regulation in the EU is discouraging these types of devices. I think it's holding back innovation, for both manufacturers, consumers and cities.
According to Cummings' account in the Guardian, Boris Johnson actually seems like quite a likeable fellow: theguardian.com/politics/2021/…

@CoryHendersonG @niallgalway @edanto Thanks Cory, I appreciate your engaging constructively. Actually the accident rate for over 65s in NL has been increasing for a few years. They think it may be due to (as you mention), growing numbers cycling in that age group. But junction design in urban contexts is also …
@RSAIreland I nominatie garda Janet for the Missing the point entirely award. Drivers need to face consequences when they misbehave/ make the roads unsafe. Yes @GardaTraffic that includes you. And that means enforcement, you know, doing your job. The roads should be safe for cyclists.
@CoryHendersonG ...have left very few people happy.
@CoryHendersonG About the main good thing to come out of the legislation is the powers of Gardai to take illegal motorbikes and retain them -- previously they'd take them and would have to hand them back. I don't really think much of the rest was as urgent, and the scooter stuff seems to...
Spotted these E-Bike/scooters around Vietnam and think they're amazing. Storage space and extensible for families. Shame that regulation in the EU is discouraging these types of devices. I think it's holding back innovation, for both manufacturers, consumers and cities.
@CoryHendersonG For the record: I'm not saying the experience is the same in a car and on a bike. I'm saying if you cannot allow for contra-flow without lanes, should all of these narrow streets be one-way?
@CoryHendersonG @ukwrightphil @OConnorOisin @ofaolainC @EamonRyan @Dept_Transport Yes, in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, the UK, and a few examples in both Dublin (slow rollout due to lack of guidelines) and Copenhagen (mostly wide roads). See: irishcycle.com/2016/12/12/sho…
Interesting data from @RachelAldred at @itrn_ie conference showing that not only has car usage decreased in Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs) but car *ownership* has also decreased 6% over two years and street crime has decreased 10% - both rates of decrease increasing over time

Safe, segregated cycle lanes makes #cycling accessible to people of all ages As schools return, we need much more infrastructure such as this to get schoolchildren walking & cycling to school -healthier for kids, healthier for the planet @DubCityCouncil @Fingalcoco @sdublincoco

This amazing graphic still blows my mind. ~95% of the world’s mammal biomass is people (34%) or livestock (61%) today. The single biggest biomass mammal group? Cattle. Wild mammals are only 4%. Pets are < 1%.
@robertburns73 @robertburns73 DunLaoghaire gets the prize for most transformed part of Dublin over the last 2 years-cycle paths, street furniture, street art & a new piazza. & it is still a gritty place. Thanks for all of the hard work & imagination!
Having a segregated cycle lane on our doorstep allows us to do the school run by bike. Apparently in 8 years we will have halved our emissions, the bulk coming from transport. Hard to see how it’s going to happen, but nothing will change until there’s more of these bike lanes
With the Government pledging €15m to improve infrastructure such as paths and cycle lanes, Chrissie Russell talks to mums and dads who have embraced more active and environmentally friendly modes of transport ow.ly/7TBM50FXC7R
Beach trips are better by bike. Plus fierce handy for getting damp, sandy, tired kids home without making a mess of your car. Wish we could access Sandymount strand by bike, but without #strandroad cycle lane, it’s just not feasible with our young kids.
Utterly horrendous behaviour with devastating consequences. I find the 3yr driving ban upon release deeply frustrating. Driving should not be seen as an entitlement but instead a privilege earned through safe driving standards and a track record to prove it. Change is needed!!

📢 We would like to announce a 4-week extension to the Capel St/Parliament St weekend traffic-free streets initiative. The initiative, which was due to finish this weekend, will now conclude Sep 26th. Public consultation will commence on Monday 30th August. #Dublin #CityRecovery
Up to 5 times more efficient. Meaning you get there quicker. Who would have thought?
A bike-lane moved 2.5X as many people as a regular traffic lane in a @TfL study, & given that they are half the width, the study concluded that bike-lanes are 5X as efficient as vehicle traffic lanes. HT @urbanthoughts11 Mobility in cities is about space.
@deshocks @PantiBliss The “we just don’t have the climate” argument is completely bogus.
