There we go, then. 4th July.
I’m up for a chat about stuff ahead of the election but, please, for the love of Twitter, let’s not have a bunch of arguments over political alignment when we all love bikes.

215 new homes coming off Harvest Hill Road, #Maidenhead, which has no footway, a 40mph speed limit and 1 dead cyclist in its history. How many more road users will need to die before @RBWM improve the road's safety? Planning application 23/00511/FULL.

Congratulations to all involved! Looking forward to these being rolled out more widely in the borough. #SchoolStreets
Today was a special day. With the help of friends at @SustransSouth, supportive officers & ward councillors at @RBWM, the first #schoolstreet in the borough has officially launched. I'm proud to be involved in this initiative. It's years too late and only one, but it's a start.

Wiggle and Chain Reaction websites shut, with all remaining orders to be “fulfilled within 7-10 days”
Both sites have been replaced by holding pages, after the company announced that its remaining stock and assets are to be sold by Friday

Awkward. Sunak commissions a study into traffic control measures, looking for ammunition for his anti ULEZ and LTN stance - and finds the opposite. Suppress it. And it leaks anyway. Traffic calming measures are popular and effective.
Will the Tories stop campaigning against them?
Unlikely I reckon. Evidence never gets in the way of the things they say.

In a much welcomed development for RBWM, #SchoolStreets are coming. Starting in the summer term, there will be pilot school streets in Hatch Lane, Windsor and St Adrians Close, Maidenhead.
Please do get in touch with RBWM if you would like to volunteer to help run the pilot.

A Message From Our Founders:
In the beginning, we weren’t building a team, a business, or even a product–we were just two friends with a nugget of an idea. 17 short years has led us to this point, and you can expect big things from us in 2024. ridewithgps.com/journal/9472…

And recent decisions by RBWM (watering down proposed safety improvements for pedestrians and cyclists at the A308/Holyport Road junctions & cancelling the A308 / Mill Lane cyclops) suggest there's little hope of improvement. Not good enough.
