❌ Frustrating news this morning: Funding 4 proposed Zebra Crossing outside Marden High on Hartington Road has been cancelled. I’ve already contacted the school, am incredibly sorry this has happened With gov announcing £5Billion for local active travel, people will rightly wonder how this fits🧵
A harsh take on this as someone who often drives this road for work: it will never be “dualled to the Scots border”. Every time that the unacceptable level of road casualties hits the news as it tragically has now, the debate gets hijacked by this demand www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-e...
'It can't go on' - A1 dualling demands after another five deaths in nine days

Preston Road: Moving Beyond the Culture Wars 🚦🪧📢💥 Five years ago, a promise was made to the 800 children who travel to school on Preston Road: we would make their route safer. We as a community failed to deliver. #PrestonRoad #Tynemouth #RoadSafety #ActiveTravel #CommunityFirst

I’m opening up a conversation about how we actually keep #Tynemouth moving safely #RoadSafety #PrestonRoad #Transport
A few words on the tragic loss last month of a local father riding his bike on Preston Road. We’re not at a point where it’s appropriate to comment on the circumstances of this collision, but it is time to get to work looking at the choices our community faces. Just awful. 😞
