Last week we joined partners and locals in Arbroath to celebrate completion of a major new project making walking, wheeling and cycling possible for more people in the town.👏 Read more about the difference it will make for local communities👉️ www.walkwheelcycletrust.org.uk/our-blog/new...

“This path was always about our community and making life easier and safer for local people. Before it was built, residents had to walk along the B8020 with heavy traffic... Now children can walk or cycle to school safely... It has quickly become part of daily life here" 👏👏👏

Rails to Trails: the thread about how North Edinburgh got its cycle paths On this day, 40 years ago, a councillor cut the ceremonial ribbon and opened a section of cycle path in north Edinburgh. This was a rather special bit of cycle path however as it hadn't been built by the council. It was…

City AM issues broadside against flood of AI slop being submitted by writers for its pages: "if you can’t be bothered to write it, why should anyone be bothered to read it?" www.cityam.com/there-should...

Horrific and a devastating human tragedy. Why has there not been wider mainstream coverage and debate about this case? Some crimes rightly dominate headlines for weeks. Yet road crimes even of this magnitude do not. Increased awareness can help create safer travel. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

On this day, 40 years ago, a councillor cut the ceremonial ribbon and opened a section of cycle path in north Edinburgh. This was a rather special bit of cycle path however as it hadn't been built by the council. It was built by direct citizen action: over the course of a single week it had been reclaimed from the trackbed of an old railway a group of volunteers. Wind the clock forward four decades and from these humble beginnings has grown a network of almost 20km (12 miles) of such paths in this part of the city. There's a good chance that you've cycled, walked, jogged or otherwise explored them. The credit for this their creation sits almost entirely with the relentless (and often thankless) hard work of a single, slightly anarchic organisation. This thread is the story of how the North Edinburgh Path Network came to be.
