2013-11-29 Die-in outside TfL Palestra Building

Posted on
  • After a horrific run of crashes in which six cyclists died on London’s roads in fourteen days, London cyclists are taking action both on line and in real life. A ‘Save Our Cyclists’ petition calling on London mayor Boris Johnson to take urgent action is rapidly approaching 20,000 signatures after just 24 hours, and a ‘die-in’ protest and vigil has been organised for November 29 at Transport for London headquarters.
    The die-in protest will start at 5pm on Friday November 29 with a vigil for the cyclists who have died on London’s roads outside Transport for London HQ Palestra at 197 Blackfriars Road. That will be followed at 5.30 by the die-in and rally, before the event ends at 6.30.
    “Transport for London needs our peaceful protest to be brought right to their door - the HQ of those who have failed to make our streets safe for our children or our pensioners to cycle on, never mind fit adults,”
    The full details are on the event’s Facebook page

  • There is already a thread for this

  • Would be very good to merge though to include current info for the page

  • Are sorry James looked in events and was not listed because you have not dated it. If you date it gets listed in events and does not get lost looks like this will be big also TfL asking cyclists to complete a questionaire details below

    [B]Londoners: please take our short survey[/B]

    Do you feel more or less safe when cycling over the last year? What should be done to make cycling safer? How do you feel about the Mayor's plans for the cycle superhighways?

    We want to hear the views of Londoners on cycling in the city. Please take our short survey.
    The Assembly wants to hear as many views as possible. Please share on Twitter using #cyclesurvey and post on Facebook. Please also forward this email to others.
    As a respondent to the Transport Committee’s previous survey on cycle superhighways in 2010, we would appreciate your views three years on.
