LCC’s AGMs are held at the end of each year. It is both LCC’s highest decision-making body and where trustees are elected.
The 2024 AGM will be held on Wednesday 20 November, 6.30-7.30pm, at Covent Garden Community Centre, 42 Earlham Street, WC2H 9LA.
Book tickets to the 2024 LCC AGM here.
Please note that while anyone is welcome to attend the AGM, only LCC members can vote and speak.
LCC members are invited to stand as trustees – see the trustees page for full details. The results of the trustee election will be announced at the AGM.
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.
The ‘active travel’ landscape in London is increasingly mature and LCC’s policy has grown over time to cover the areas where we feel we can most effectively make a difference given the depth of our resources. Motions may not necessarily result in immediate and dramatic change to current campaigns or trigger new ones. Any one motion should not now dramatically change the nature of the organisation’s focus – that’s for the Board, CEO and then staff as well as local groups and coordinators to work on and agree.
For this year’s AGM, in order to ensure the motions proposed are realistic, we are seeking motions which :
LCC staff are available by emailing agm@lcc.org.uk if you want to discuss a motion’s wording or whether and how the organisation may be able to practically carry a motion forward.
In line with LCC’s Standing Orders all motions will be subject to a process of scrutiny and possible amendment after submission and prior to the AGM. Members proposing motions will be invited to attend a scrutiny meeting in advance of the AGM to discuss the motion with trustees and staff. For queries please email agm@lcc.org.uk and for full details, please refer to the Standing Orders.
To submit a motion, please email it to agm@lcc.org.uk before 9am on Monday 21 October.

2024
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.
