& we need pavements protected from obstructions with a ban on #pavementparking. Pavements were never meant for heavy vehicles on them. The damage caused reduces the pavement's accessibility (let alone obstructing when they are ON the pavement). #pavementsareforpeople

1.5B 🚗 trip every year of less than 1 mile. Solution? Reimagine what we already have. Zebras at mouth of side roads = 65% more drivers stop, 8:10 parents want it = journeys on foot easier, safer for slow crossers & more independence for kids to walk to school = we all win.
8 in 10 parents & carers say zebra crossings on side roads would make them feel safer walking their children to school. Today we've announced new side road zebra trials to help @WestMids_CA and @greatermcr with their devolution deals. Watch our video with @Chris_Boardman 🦓🚶♂️👩🦽🛴

According to the Disabled Citizens Inquiry we conducted with @Sustrans, 73% of disabled people said they would be able to walk and wheel more if pavement parking were banned.
It can’t get much clearer than that. The government must take action.
