A response to a letter from @NewcastleCC regarding the #Heaton #LTN including why using metrics from a Commonplace consultation to influence the decision was potentially flawed, among other things …tonparkviewreopening.godaddysites.com/council-letter
There were “nine people injured on the central section of [Gosforth] high street from April 2023 to February 2024 – compared to a yearly average of 3.4 from 2014 to 2023.”
There were “nine people injured on the central section of [Gosforth] high street from April 2023 to February 2024 – compared to a yearly average of 3.4 from 2014 to 2023.”
Elections for @NewcastleCC are due to be held on 2 May 2024. Our latest blog looks at what @NewcastleLabour have delivered in the last year and what they and other political parties are promising in their local election manifestos. spaceforgosforth.com/local-election…
@SPACEforHeaton @NewcastleCC None of that is acceptable, pavement parking should be banned as it is in London and Scotland. At our recent ward meeting the Police asked residents to report via 101 as they may be able to issue fixed penalty notices. If you see this type of parking report it.
When you send the message that cars are more important than people, there's soon no room left for people. When casting your vote in the @NewcastleCC elections on the 2nd of May, vote for candidates that will put people first.
@SPACEforHeaton @KidicalMassNE Thanks really enjoyed it, lovely was to spend the afternoon the cake the park was yummy too.
Thank you to everyone who came today and particularly to those councillors who took time to speak to families concerned about the recent cancellation of active travel schemes by @NewcastleCC - lots families here who want more cycle lanes and low traffic streets!
Tomorrow we ride for safe streets for children and young people in Newcastle. Who is joining us? #KidicalMass #SafeStreetsNow
Who are you going to vote for #NorthEastMayor? Our latest blog explains what each of the candidates are promising for transport in the region, and includes links to candidates’ full manifestos. spaceforgosforth.com/ne-mayor-elect…
There's going to be a family friendly Save Our Safer Streets Social on Heaton Park View this Saturday at 1pm to show support for the Heaton #LTN @SPACEforHeaton @NewCycling …tonparkviewreopening.godaddysites.com/street-social
The LTN removed 2685 vehicles per day from local streets. Axing LTN 'tremendous backwards step' - residents bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

On Thursday you will be voting for the new North East Combined Authority Mayor. The North East deserves a commitment like this too. @MayorJD @KiMcGuinness @cllrPdonaghy
If re-elected I’ll invest at least £60 MILLION for new cycle & walking routes A YEAR 📈 That’s a DOUBLING of investment to £20 per head ✅ I am the only candidate in this election with a serious plan for active travel & I will retain the Cycling & Walking Commissioner role 🚲🚶🏻
Our experience is very similar to this. If you want safe streets for your kids start asking now (even if you don’t yet have children).
I got into campaigning for safer streets in 2013 because I could not let my 10 year old daughter cycle to school. She's 21 this year. That route is still too dangerous.
Great way to start the weekend: long shadows, slow bike ride and off for a beverage. Discussions around upcoming elections, @SunriseCycleway and wearing warm clothing even if the sun is out.... (Shorts?!?) Cheers all, see you next month.

Good news everyone, removing the Jesmond traffic control has cleared up the traffic!
📌A1058 Jesmond Road from the Cradlewell bypass and the All Saints Cemetery in Jesmond #Newcastle, heavy traffic on both directions, westbound delays is significant.
There were “nine people injured on the central section of [Gosforth] high street from April 2023 to February 2024 – compared to a yearly average of 3.4 from 2014 to 2023.”

I am angry. I love Heaton so much I wrote a book about it and it deserves better than this. This feels like betrayal. @NewcastleCC @SPACEforHeaton @UKLabour @ouseburnlibdems @AliAtSchool
The fact they are having to get traffic signals back into use is a very good indicator of there being lots of motor traffic that needs managing.
(Left) Labour council installs LTN in Heaton, 2022. (Right) Labour council rips out LTN in Heaton.
@SPACEforHeaton @NewcastleCC None of that is acceptable, pavement parking should be banned as it is in London and Scotland. At our recent ward meeting the Police asked residents to report via 101 as they may be able to issue fixed penalty notices. If you see this type of parking report it.
@SPACEforHeaton @NewcastleCC Totally agree. Although I’d argue for people having a real understanding of their candidates. I’d hate to see Clare PE lose her seat for instance; Labour’s support for sustainability and people-friendly neighbourhoods would be weakened by her going.
