πŸ† Walk the towpath early enough and you will pass the same runners, the same walking group and the same person who has been organising both for longer than anyone can remember.

The ActiveWestminster Awards exist for that person. Nominations are open, the council runs them, and there are nine categories, Unsung Hero included.

Local councillors Melvyn, Lorraine and Louise are asking anyone around Warwick Avenue, Clifton Road or the canal to think of one name and send it in.

Monday 28 September, midnight. That is the deadline.

A hire bike left on the towpath, or across the pavement on Clifton Road, is a particular nuisance here, because there is often nowhere else to step.

The year's enforcement record was read out at Full Council last week: some 700 machines seized for parking dangerously, and Β£250,000 clawed back off the companies that own them.

Local councillors Melvyn, Lorraine and Louise have been pressing on towpath obstruction alongside the lighting and the cycling speeds.

Use westm.news/r. A minute now, and it sits with the council to sort.

Yom Kippur runs from sundown this evening to nightfall tomorrow.

Along Clifton Road and up by the canal, some households are preparing the meal before the fast and others are already on their way to synagogue.

Local councillors Melvyn, Lorraine and Louise wish all of you an easy and meaningful fast.

Towpath this morning, Church Street this afternoon.

Sunday Streets runs to two o'clock today, a London Cycling Festival date: free Dr Bike servicing, a preloved bike market, skills games for children and grown ups both, the side-by-sides to sit on, and stalls, food and music.

Local councillors Melvyn, Lorraine and Louise have been raising towpath lighting and cycling speeds for a while now, so an afternoon that puts bikes and the people who ride them in one place is a useful one. Worth an hour if you are out anyway.

Church Street, until 2pm.

We've listened to local concerns from residents and businesses in Little Venice and across Westminster about Labour's poorly designed cycle schemes.

In our first 100 Days, we have acted.

βœ‹ Halted and redesigned cycle schemes in Bayswater, Marylebone and St John's Wood
πŸ”Ž Put existing cycle lanes under review over congestion and safety concerns
❌ Scrapped 'floating' bus stops from every new scheme

Promises Made, Promises Kept.

In May, we promised Safe Streets, A Clean City, and A City That Works for All.

In our first 100 Days, that is exactly what we are delivering in Little Venice and across Westminster.

Enforcement is being taken seriously again, street cleaning has been stepped up, and we're restoring value for money after years of Labour waste and mismanagement.

Years of Labour's managed decline is over.

This is real Conservative delivery in action. And there is more to do.
