Let’s make sure London’s next Mayor knows just how much we all love cycling

More than a million cycle journeys are made in London every day, and almost half of us already cycle or want to start, so Londoners are cycling more and more.

With the mayoral election fast approaching, we need to make our voices heard – share the film, share the cycling love on social media, send an email to the candidates – let’s make sure everyone knows… London Loves Cycling.

To make it possible for everyone to experience the benefits of cycling, we want London’s next mayor to commit to:

Safe cycling for everyone

Cycling has to feel safer for more Londoners to do it. This means bringing forward ‘Vision Zero’ targets to 2030 and getting serious on tackling needless deaths and serious injuries on our roads with funding and resources for collision investigation and junction improvements.

Cycle routes for all

Complete the cycle network so everywhere in London is connected. This means finishing the ‘Strategic Cycling Network’ ahead of schedule, by 2028, so 70% of Londoners live within 400 metres of a high-quality route.

Funding for everyone

A level of active travel funding sufficient to spread cycling across London’s diverse communities. This means ringfencing TfL’s active travel budget at 2022/23 levels as a minimum until 2028
