We want you to write to the Mayor of London to tell him that Bow roundabout must be made safe immediately.
Your email will also show support for the London Assembly motion on 7 December 2011 calling for safety recommendations at all junctions to be implemented.
Please email the following (or your own version) and send it to safeBow@lcc.org.uk
Dear Mayor,
I'm appalled at the two cyclist fatalities that have taken place recently at Bow roundabout.
I'm demanding you implement an urgent and effective redesign of this lethal junction, and others in London like it, so no more families suffer the tragic losses of the last few weeks.
Yours sincerely
[YOUR NAME]
Boris Johnson is sceptical that junction design is key to cyclist safety, and the recommendations LCC and independent consultants gave to make Bow safe were rejected.
We have produced a safe Bow roundabout design showing how these recommendations can easily be implemented.
After two deaths in three weeks, we need to tell him in large numbers that Bow roundabout must be made safe immediately, so there are no more lives lost.
