Tower Hamlets Cycling Manifesto 2018-2022

Tower Hamlets Cycling Manifesto 2018-2022

For a healthier, cleaner, and greener East End

This Manifesto represents what Tower Hamlets Wheelers, the borough group of the London Cycling Campaign, would like to see achieved in LB Tower Hamlets during the 2018–22 administration.

Our Manifesto represents much more than the interests of the one-in-ten of our borough's residents who are already regular cyclists. It is our view that how our roads are managed has huge impacts on all the people of Tower Hamlets: on public health, individual wellbeing, inequality, community, and the local economy. Implementing our asks would have a hugely beneficial effect in all these areas.

Our Principles & Asks

Our manifesto is based on 12 principles ranging from public health, air pollution issues to the need for high quality infrastructure. From these we have three main asks for the next administration to achieve by 2022:

  1. Significant new cycle routes
  2. Low traffic neighbourhoods
  3. Bicycle parking

Full details on the principles and asks in the manifesto document. A text-only version of our manifesto is also available which includes footnoted references for all facts and figures.
