Attended the opening of @LNER Family Lounge at York Station today by @DavidHorne & the Rt Hon Lord Mayor of York. The team have done a great job & we supported them with a grant. The mirror in the corner was found under panelling & has been restored in the vibrant new space.

Rather a sad moment - today the Dutch government introduces border controls at the frontiers with Belgium & Germany. They don’t have the resources to do very many checks, but it still feels like a big step backwards. Our children will not enjoy the freedoms we did.

I asked Rail Minister, Lord Hendy, if he regretted his actions, after claims that he threatened a firm when its engineer voiced safety concerns in 2023 about Euston station.

Ayayayyy what a week for EVs
News of the Stellantis Luton factory closure has been conflated with the ZEV mandate failing, but it's pretty clear to anyone paying attention that the two things are not really related...

It's been snowing in the UK and the road gritters are out in force, begging the question:

Switching just 1 trip a day from 🚗 to 🚴 or 🚶♂️ = almost 30% less transport CO2 for the ave UK urban resident. If 1 in 5 did this in 🇪🇺 it’d cut emissions from all 🚗 travel in 🇪🇺 by 8%. The potential impact of active travel on CO2 could be huge @activetraveleng @transportgovuk

One thing everyone can do immediately is to not undermine the trauma of road crashes by euphemistically calling them “accidents”.

Love the @LevelBoarding which is safer, more accessible for everyone and enables spontaneous independent travel for wheelchair users
Well done @tfwrail
@transportgovuk must specify low floored trains for all future procurement or inaccessibility will be baked in for decades
Another new class in service from today - two @tfwrail tri-mode Class 756s are in traffic on the Cardiff-Merthyr Tydfil and Cardiff-Aberdare routes - 4-cars 756107 and 756116. There are seven 3-cars and 17 4-cars in this fleet built by Stadler. 📷 TfW

The Government has said it will launch the first road safety strategy for over 10 years and will look at best practice on vision zero from around the world, and from cities who have committed to it in the UK.
I really hope this plan is ambitious and challenges the status quo.
