I’m super excited about our new Smart Mobility Hub in St James Hospital with Bleeper!! These Hubs have limited impact if they are not integrated with public transport. This is why we are offering foldable bikes to commute with trains and buses; ebikes for work trips.

Thank you to NewstalkFM for giving me the opportunity to talk about the importance of active travel to reduce traffic emissions. I'm piloting a bike library in schools to provide families with sustainable mobility options. open.spotify.com/episode/3ua5E5… #ClimateAction #activemobility

This truck is parked ON the protected cycle lane of the Centra Ireland [197 Harolds Cross] every second day. The truck driver convenience seems to be more important than #Roadsafety for the children cycling to the 4 schools in the area! Please An Garda Síochána do something

I'm delighted that the An Roinn Iompair - Department of Transport has committed to support the replication of my #BikeLibrary to more schools in #Ireland! The new tax incentive of €3,000 will boost the use of cargo bikes by families instead of cars to bring children to #school. irishtimes.com/ireland/2022/1…

Today my #BikeLibrary was launched in 20 schools in Dublin City Council with the amazing support of Transport for Ireland and Bleeper . It’s about giving families an alternative to their own private cars, in the hope they would cycle to school rather than drive. irishtimes.com/transport/2023…
