LCC often publishes reports aimed at developing thinking, policy and best practice around active travel. From low-cost trials of cycling infrastructure to micromobility, from dangerous junctions to health, we bring experts together to discuss how London can adapt and how cycling is part of the solution. You can also watch back all LCC webinars on YouTube.
2024 - Healthy Streets Scorecard
Which boroughs are taking action? Which boroughs need to do more?
LCC is part of a coalition who review London borough actions for sustainable travel against the Mayor’s Transport Strategy to help councils and residents understand how well or badly they are doing. We have been reviewing boroughs every year since 2020.

2020 - How To Talk To People About The Future Of Their Streets
2020 Report: How To Talk To People About The Future Of Their Streets
People say they want to tackle climate change but when it comes down to the proposed cycle track at the end of our street, the low traffic neighbourhood where we live, people oppose schemes – loudly and angrily. Resident pushback all too often sees council officers left with weakened or cancelled schemes. What skills are needed to engage and what techniques are available?
We partner with Urban Movement to deliver a guide for councils, officers and urban practitioners to rethink public engagement, better avoid backlash and deliver better streets for all. Also useful for cycle and active travel campaigners to understand how they can work with their community and local government.
