Everyone deserves choice when it comes to travel. The 'Plan for the Motorist' denies people their health and freedom by leaving them no option but to drive. We need your support to speak up for cycling, now more than ever: ow.ly/uFqP50PRiqS

It's been a long 3 years since Autodesk have been able to hold this event and nearly a decade since I last attended but I'm very much looking forward to #AU2022 learning a lot and connecting with a lot of my #Ramboll colleagues over the next few days.

Too many drivers don’t care that you’re someone’s wife, daughter, grandad or son… but they do care about their licence and insurance. That’s why we made PassPixi. Visit us at PassPixi.com #Cycling #ClosePass

'I think the children and the future deserve that.' 'Just Stop Oil' activists protested across London this weekend to demand an end to the fossil fuel economy. Meanwhile, the cost of living crisis means many people are paying more & more for fuel. Are oil protests justified?

When I commute now I use a camera all the time - this is not an acceptable standard of driving and ASPolice take it seriously. Don't stop me reducing my carbon footprint - learn to pass cyclist safely or face the consequences.

One of the worst #closepass reports we've received. Footage viewed several times in court on Tuesday to accentuate the gravity of the overtaking manoeuvre. Driver received: Points: 9 Fine: £660 Surcharge: £66 Costs: £110 Report an incident on the road: avonandsomerset.police.uk/ro…

Did you know 52% of all sub 5 miles trips are made by car? Cycling is a planet-saving alternative yet receives a fraction of the investment of major roads projects. It's time for politicians to invest so that everyday cycling is accessible for all: bit.ly/cop26-cyclinguk #COP26

Here’s the perfect illustration of why cameras on their own aren’t enough of a deterrent. Could you spot it while approaching at 30-40mph? (It’s under the seat rails) #ClosePass #Cycling #gopro #cycliq

Two wheels this month. If we want to reduce casualties and improve the cycling environment, we must be proactive in our approach. Out today with our cycle cameras and trialling an Airvest made for cyclists. Taking the lead from horse riders and motorcyclists on safety.

You might be at the start of your #climateaction journey, in delivery stage or even evaluating your climate action impacts – the important thing is that we must start that journey, and we must start now as a core part of 2021 planning. fal.cn/3bwPr
