The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️
This Dutch intersection was given a design that, despite not being urban, offered people walking and cycling a safe passageway along and through the conflict zone. However, motorists kept speeding along here, so that's when enforcement tech was brought in. Speed cameras dropped speeds drastically.

Optimist: riding a bike is fun, gets me places on time, keeps me fit and saves me money! Pessimist: it rains and it might be hilly so I’m not cycling. And cyclists are *bad* Driver: look at those bastard cyclists getting ahead while I’m stuck here in traffic for hours. They don’t even pay tax!

It's just one long stream of BS from these fossil fuel-backed clowns. Adopting their policies would destroy a million jobs (see next post) while creating almost none in return. Total environmental and social vandalism. The absolute state of "conservatism". www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

They did the crime, whilst running up debts to pay shareholders, and now they won’t do the time. Water should be nationalised at no cost to the taxpayer.
Doug Parr@dougparr.bsky.social · 6mo agoSuccessive UK govt's desperation not to re-nationalise a failing industry has led to this - no more fines.

The evidence appears to suggest there are too many senior politicians who “really have no business being in politics at all”. Quite.
Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social · 7mo agoAgain, if Reform's opponents can't work out how to beat this guy, then they really have no business being in politics at all. The most target-rich politician in the UK

Who knew Reform would be a disaster?! The fact people still support them in such lemming numbers says rather a lot about the state of our education system.

This. Every word. Active travel is not a competitor against public transport. Unless we make it so by failing to integrate the two. We also need secure cycle storage including e-bike charging at key and rural bus stops.
Melissa & Chris Bruntlett@modacitylife.com · 11mo agoPublic transport often treats bikes as a luxury—or worse a competitor—but without them leaves revenue on the table. For 25 years, the Dutch have extended the reach of their railways through investments in (300,000) parking spaces and (25,000) shared bikes. The result? A doubling of train ridership.
