Under this umbrella Movement, we intend to make the city safer and friendlier for cyclists. Whilst we know that as more people have taken up cycling it has become safer and overall accidents are coming down, we have still seen fatalities and serious incidents in London last year, many of them involving heavy goods vehicles. Let's join our forces to become a strong advocacy group to push for change! Less

What is infrastructure? Infrastructure is the combination of fundamental systems that support a community, region, or country. It includes everything from water and sewer systems to road and rail networks to the national power and natural gas grids. Perhaps there will be a hydrogen grid in the future as well. What is the current state of our infrastructure? It is no secret that America’s infrastructure, along with those of many other countries, is aging and failing, and that funding has been insufficient to repair and replace it. Engineers of the 21st century face the formidable challenge of modernizing the fundamental structures that support civilization. The problem is particularly acute in urban areas, where growing populations stress society’s support systems, and natural disasters, accidents, and terrorist attacks threaten infrastructure safety and security. And urban infrastructure is not just a U.S. issue; special challenges are posed by the problems of megacities, with populations exceeding 10 million, which are found mostly in Asia. In many parts of the world, basic infrastructure needs are still problematic, and engineers will be challenged to economically provide such services more broadly. Furthermore, solutions to these problems must be designed for sustainability, giving proper attention to environmental and energy-use considerations (though cities take up just a small percentage of the Earth’s surface, they disproportionately exhaust resources and generate pollution), along with concern for the aesthetic elements that contribute to the quality of life.

Issue: : Our kids do not learn about the advantages of cycling early on. They figure the benefits of different modes of transportation later on in their lives. Hence sometimes it takes many many decades before anybody comes to the conclusion to utilize their bikes more often. The question is how best to make this information visible and accessible to our kids, early enough in their education. Less

Issue: One-way systems, or gyratories, are dinosaurs of urban planning. Huge lumbering beasts that have wrecked communities by encouraging fast-moving traffic, pumping noise and air pollution into streets where people are supposed to feel comfortable walking and cycling. Motorway-style junctions and multi-lane one-way systems have no place in areas where we live, shop and work. Some transport planners have come around to this way of thinking, but progress is slow, and many schemes that replace one-way systems are still thoroughly car-centric. Planning methods which prioritise motor vehicle capacity are not fit for purpose in urban areas. There is a need to reduce capacity in order to encourage cycling and walking as quickest, moste efficent and sustainable ways of moving people around the city. As well as creating multiple lanes of fast-moving traffic, one-way systems block direct routes for cyclists. Less
