On Wednesday, 14th May at 7pm Tower Hamlets Wheelers will hold our first Mayoral Cycling Hustings. Ahead of the local elections on 22nd May we have invited all the declared mayoral candidates to come and speak about how they would improve cycling in the borough. Each candidate will have the opportunity to make a short speech followed by an Q&A session and then informal discussion.
Three of the latest cyclist deaths have occurred on the Mayor's Cycle Superhighway 2 between Aldgate and Bow, which LCC has said for years isn't safe enough.
Today at 6:00pm, for a 6.30pm start, London Cycling Campaign will mount a peaceful flash protest in response to the four recent cycling deaths in just over a week, and the increasing number of serious cycling injuries. The most recent fatality, a young woman in her mid-20s at Bow roundabout this morning, was the third cyclist to die at this location.
