Previous Motions

LCC motions from the last five years can be found below. All motions, including those longer ago than the last five years, can be found in the corresponding year’s AGM minutes. The most recent special resolutions that amended LCC Articles of Association and Standing Orders were in 2025.

2025

AGM Standing Orders

1. In Article 17, replacing “voting on elections” with “voting in elections” and deleting “Each member has as many votes as there are vacancies or as there are candidates, whichever is less” As single transferable votes allow ranking all candidates.

2. Moving the following wording from Article 17 into Article 13:
“Voting in elections shall be by ballot by single transferrable vote in accordance with the Electoral Reform Society Rules as amended from time to time. Members do not need to use all their votes. Each candidate may be voted for only once.” and “The Chair has a casting vote, in addition to their ordinary member’s vote.”

3. In Article 13, adding – at the end of the first sentence “Election of Board members shall take place by postal vote, and/or electronic vote and at the AGM” – the words “as detailed in the Articles of Association.”

4. In Article 13, removing “Their nomination must be proposed and seconded by two other LCC members. Candidates must write a short summary explaining why they wish to stand. All candidates should speak briefly at the meeting, explaining why they wish to stand. Nominees should also be prepared to take reasonable questions from the floor.”

5. In Article 13, adding “One of the candidates shall be ‘Reopen Nominations’ (RON), allowing members to choose not to fill one or more of the spaces available for election. Votes cast for RON shall be treated in the same manner as votes for any other candidate, except that any preferences listed after RON shall be discounted and votes for RON shall not be transferred to any other candidate. Should any Trustee vacancies be unfilled following the election process, they will remain unfilled until the next annual general meeting.”

Shared / Dockless Bike Hire

Dockless hire bikes are increasing London’s cycling mode share and broadening the demographics of people cycling. However, when poorly implemented, they can result in negative impacts, particularly for people walking, wheeling and cycling.

LCC commits to working with stakeholders to address negative impacts of dockless hire by advocating for measures such as appropriate rollout of dockless parking and adherence, better rider behaviour, and a London-wide approach to contracts.

Online Safety Tracker

This motion calls for the LCC to advocate for and/or seek partners to develop an online safety tracker to log incidents of abuse and harassment including racist and sexist abuse experienced when cycling.

The LCC safety tracker will be designed to capture incidents as and when they happen, building on the findings of the 2024 ‘Get off the road, b*tch!’ survey carried out by the London Cycling Campaign Women’s Network.

The online resource shall be open to all, and seeks to create an evidence base that could inform LCC’s strategy.

TfL Buses & Active Travel

LCC is a firm believer in the importance of buses and public transport in London in enabling a wide range of people to get around. We want more buses, more regular buses, and bus priority put above private motor traffic. This approach is part of the way London should be enhancing its transport networks. Some types of schemes to enable bus priority, such as bus gates, also are good for cycling and bus provision in general is good for active travel.

However, we are hearing consistently across London that TfL Buses are currently routinely opposing active travel schemes, even in some cases when those schemes are good for buses and bus journey times, and LCC has already seen an AGM motion in 2023 that raised the issue of bus safety and buses as they are currently run at TfL and operators, with buses currently disproportionately dangerous to those cycling in London, and little done about this ongoing issue.

On that basis, LCC calls on the Mayor, City Hall, TfL and Boroughs to work together and with transport charities including LCC to find common ground ways to unlock more rapid changes to achieve Vision Zero, Net Zero and to boost both public transport use and cycling, as well as to establish best practice on junction designs, bus gates, motor traffic reduction and other areas for both public transport efficiency and road user safety – including by ensuring coherence and clarity across modes.

TfL Buses and bus companies should not spend their time fighting against active travel, but rather find ways to work with and alongside active travel modes.

2023

Accessible cycle routes

Many potential routes for cycling in London are made inaccessible by barriers.  These barriers include narrow gates, steep access ranks, rough paths and closely placed railings.  These barriers impact particularly badly on people cycling local trips, on people less able to carry or push their bike, on wheelchair users and on parents or carers pushing buggies or cycling with children. 

A particular issue of concern are crossings of railways, by bridge or underpass, which are often inaccessible, and where there may be opportunity to work with Network Rail and local councils to seek improvements.  

We propose that LCC works alongside allies to support accessible cycling across London and communicates with borough groups to identify significant railway-related problems such as bridges and underpasses.   

Bus Driver Training

I propose that LCC campaign on TfL bus driving standards by demanding from the Mayor, TfL and bus companies that all serious and fatal collisions involving buses are subject to full investigation and any outcomes for bus driver or bus company as a result are made public. TfL bus driving has deteriorated since Covid with many reporting close passes, left hooks etc.

According to TfL’s Vision Zero Action Plan, TfL Buses are over-represented in serious and fatal collisions with those cycling. When poor driving by bus drivers is challenged by individuals, bus companies respond by saying the driver has been dealt with but refusing to reveal details. TfL needs to take responsibility for all employees who drive for any companies within TfL’s remit. 

Traffic Lights

I propose LCC challenge TfL to make all traffic light systems reactive for cycling – as in when there is no motor traffic in another direction cycling gets priority lights. Such light systems do exist. This is of paramount importance for safe cycling, especially for women and/or at night with little traffic, when keeping moving is safer. In addition, this would deter much red light jumping.
