On Monday at 7pm, we held a vigil at Wanstead Flats for Barry Shonibare, who was hit by a car driver on 16th June—he died in hospital 5 days later. We were joined by many of Barry’s family and friends, some of whom had travelled to be with us. newhamcyclists.uk/vigil-for-barr…

Cyclist dies after being critically injured on a road in Wanstead Flats. (Police described the collision as having happened in Newham but the collision appeal boards are in Redbridge, adjacent to Centre Rd car park) standard.co.uk/news/transport…

The victim of the crash on Centre Road has been named as 71-year-old Barry Shonibare. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends. We completely agree with their call for speed cameras on Centre Road. standard.co.uk/news/transport…

Cycle route connoisseur @joncstone says new North Woolwich Road lanes might be one of the best new cycleways in all of London. We'll certainly get behind that! Congrats @NewhamLondon @rokhsanafiaz @CllrSarahRuiz & all on an extraordinary transformation. youtube.com/watch?v=o3mahB…

We're deeply saddened to have learned that a cyclist injured in a crash with a car on Centre Road in Wanstead Flats on Monday 16th June died in hospital five days later. He was 71 years old. Our statement: newhamcyclists.uk/statement-on-t…

We've submitted evidence to the Parliamentary Committee for the Bus Services (No. 2) Bill, to register our opposition to any amendments which would ban bus stop bypasses, a proven and safe solution to accommodate cycling and bus users on the same streets. newhamcyclists.uk/bus-services-n…

Tomorrow is going to be HOT, HOT, HOT! So come down before the heat and enjoy a fine breakfast & chat about active travel in lovely leafy London Fields! @London_Cycling @hackneycouncil @LondonFields12 @HackneyLivingSt @LoveHackney

💭 Dare to dream of... making a bike available for every Londoner! 🚴‍♀️ We're calling on Sadiq Khan to work to sweep away the additional barriers to bike access some Londoners face, such as cost and storage. Call for action by emailing the Mayor today... 👇

If you're wondering why Greenwich traffic is even heavier than usual right now it's because the A2 is partially blocked, and with two tunnels now feeding onto the same roads south of the river predictable miles-long jams ensue. Always a big flaw with Silvertown tunnel

🚴‍♀️⏰🚨🚴‍♂️Pedalling People! The clock is ticking for your say on @MayorofLondon's pedestrianisation plan for Oxford Street. We are giddily in favour BUT without any new cycleways, safety in an already tricky area will be a BIG worry. Full story to follow...lcc.org.uk/news/yes-to-a-…
