The London Cycling Campaign AGM is held at the end of each year. It is LCC’s highest decision-making body, where trustees are elected, and is run line with our Standing Orders
Each year, LCC members are invited to stand as trustees – see the trustees page for full details. Full details of standing as a trustee in 2025 will be available nearer the time.
Each year, LCC members are invited to submit motions for debate and voting. AGM motions are an important part of developing LCC’s campaigning, policy and other work and are an excellent way for members to highlight areas they feel LCC has neglected or to ensure the membership is heard on a particular policy area. Previous motions can be viewed below. For queries please email agm@lcc.org.uk and for full details, please refer to the Standing Orders. Full details of submitting a motion to the 2025 AGM will be available nearer the time.

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.

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.

Schools
LCC resolves to call for school streets and safe routes to school for every school in London and improve communication with schools and parents with children on the benefits of cycling to school.
Key Performance Indicators
This AGM proposes that a set of Key Performance Indicators shall be set for the London Cycling Campaign. They would likely include indicators for membership, finance, campaigns, local group activity, public awareness etc. The outcomes of these performance indicators shall be published in the annual report and on the London Cycling Campaign website. The results shall cover a three-year cycle.
River Crossings
This AGM notes that much of the major development and growth in motor traffic is happening on the east side of London, while the Thames there remains a major barrier to shifting more travel to cycling; Calls on the Mayor of London to introduce charging for motor vehicles using Tower Bridge, Blackwall Tunnels, Woolwich Ferry and Rotherhithe Tunnel as soon as possible ahead of any future road crossing opening in East London.
Policy on e-Scooters
1. LCC supports the creation of UK regulations that will allow e-scooters to legally operate on the roads or cycleways under certain conditions.
2. E-scooter riders should be subject to the same rules and guidance as cycles on footways/pavements and apply considerate riding rules.
3. LCC supports the introduction of design and safety standards for e-scooters.
4. LCC supports electric assist of e-scooters limited to 12.4mph.
5. E-scooters must have a human rider. Further consideration of e-scooters and other micromobility will include: to consider widening membership of LCC that meets our micromobility definition if/where legally allowed; to develop a parking policy for micromobility, and to identify general design characteristics of micromobility that should be allowed on cycle infrastructure.
