Silvertown tunnel yearly report. It’s good to see all new bus services are zero emission at the tail pipe, but a lot more to look at such as the bike bus with only 100 -130 users a day, averaging only one bike & cyclist per bus. Why not repurpose a tunnel bore? #ActiveTravel #cargobikes #cyclists

TfL report on SilverTown Tunnel: Public and active transport
“We aim to improve cross-river journey opportunities by bus and cycling as well as other local journeys
Project objectives
PO3: to support economic and population growth, in particular in east and southeast London by providing improved cross-river transport links.
The Silvertown and Blackwall Tunnel bus network increased the frequency of services across the river from six to 2l services per hour at the busiest times between 07:00 and 19:00 Monday to Friday. This included double-deck buses for the first time, with all the new services being zero-emission at the tailpipe. All routes also benefit from new bus priority measures, which enable quicker journeys to North Greenwich bus station via dedicated slip roads for buses. Between 7 April 2025 and 26 May 2026, all journeys on buses in the new bus network were free.
Silvertown and Blackwall Tunnel bus network
The opening of the Silvertown Tunnel has enabled us to introduce a significantly enhanced higher capacity and increased frequency cross-river bus network in east London. The Victorian era northbound
Blackwall Tunnel could not be used by double-deck buses and was also a persistent source of congestion linked to overheight vehicle incidents which caused hundreds of unplanned closures each year.
This led to unreliable journeys times on route 108, the only bus service to cross the river in this area, as well as for commuter coaches linking Kent and London”. A white chart with purple columns

Diesel in #Heywood over £2/litre today.

Many car journeys are less than a mile, and most are less than 3. Walking and cycling are still free - give them a go, save money and be healthy.

Car-Free Sunday - My favourite day of the year in Brussels - an rief vision of an ##ActiveTravel utopia.
When the cars are away, pedestrians and cyclists play.
But there are also clear improvements every day- lots to learn @dubcitycouncil.bsky.social @fingal.ie

Excellent presentation from Paris urban planner Priscilla Benedetti on the introduction of school streets - and an eye-opening graphic on comparative population density 🏙️

Being fair about this there are cases, e.g. bakeries, where staff may be arriving at times when there's little public transport and few people about, so don't feel safe unless they drive *but* surely adequate #ActiveTravel infra makes its users feel safe?

@andydrummond.eurosky.socialSep 17, 2026, 9:29 AM

I don't get the businesses thing - the evidence is that #ActiveTravel is *good* for businesses but it seems to be embedded in consciousness that it isn't.

When it's a café complaining it's particularly odd, as if you can't sell coffee & cake to cyclists, you're caféing wrong.

@andydrummond.eurosky.socialSep 17, 2026, 8:47 AM

Definitely, and in countries (e.g. NL/DK) where safe, separated infra exists the profile of people on bikes is much broader.

But there's this odd idea that, rather than enabling more of society to walk/cycle, adequate #ActiveTravel infra is a reward the nasty cyclists don't deserve.

As above, all of these things are competing but that does not make any of them untrue, but many of them feed into political unwillingness to reduce volumes and speed of urban motor traffic, at cost of health, wellbeing and the environment #ActiveTravel #Cycling

We're all set up at the London Walking, Wheeling and Cycling Conference at the Guildhall today 🚶 🚴‍♂️. Come and see our latest walking and cycling maps and pick up a free notepad!

Local councils can't lower fuel prices, so as petrol hits £2/L in some places, they can do more to facilitate alternative transport - notably improving cycle lanes. There's no reason my commute which in a car can be 12 miles should be 17 miles just to avoid scary roads. #bikesky #activetravel

See also: people *feel* any form of #TrafficRestriction or removal of parking is bad for businesses despite an avalanche of evidence to the contrary.

This is particularly weird when it's a cafe complaining, as if you can't sell coffee and cake to people on bikes, you're caféing wrong #ActiveTravel
