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

Excited to partner with the MINKE_Project to deploy their cutting edge #DIY low cost sensors to monitor 🚰 water and 🫁 air quality in #DúnLaoghaire. Look out for more info in the coming weeks #ClimateActionNow #citizenscience #ClimateCrisis


another great story from out WeCount-H2020 project! Our traffic monitor was utilised by the Red Arches Residents to support motion for traffic calming measures to reduce speed. Thank you Cllr. Joan Hopkins for this! #citizenscience #activetravel #sustainablemobility #ClimateActionNow


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…


thank you I BIKE Dublin, It was fantastic to see some much support!! something needs to be done to improve the cycling infrastructure in Harold's Cross! there are 5 schools in the area and no safe cycling for the children. Speed limit is at 50km/h with plenty of cars speeding!


🎃👻 a #cycling E.T. is visiting the #BikeLibrary in Harold's Cross Educate Together tomorrow morning! it's all about showing children that active travel is not only good for the environment and our health, but also fun! Green-Schools #ClimateAction #Roadsafety #school




I got some absolutely amazing news! The Horizon Europe 🇪🇺 proposal I coordinated was succesful. We will designing inclusive, safe, affordable and sustainable urban mobility in several cities in Europe and empower citizens & practitioners with tools and solutions to increase road safety


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…
