Every Wednesday morning from 730am you will find Glasgow Coffee Outside (aka Steve) set up on the north side of the Clyde Walkway just by the Tradeston Bridge (the squiggly bridge) offering free coffee for cyclists.

In case anyone else has been losing track of all the construction projects going on just now… Glasgow City Council put out an Avenues Programme Progress Report (PDF) in April 2025. However, a few that were due to be complete by May 2025 are still going on.

Sustrans has created the first ever Children’s Walking and Cycling Index, designed to help better understand the behaviours, barriers and attitudes affecting how children walk, wheel and cycle in the UK.

Children are often overlooked by decision-makers in transport except on journeys to and from school.

This leaves out the role that travel plays in their day-to-day lives, supporting development of their independence, socialisation skills, overall mental health and wellbeing, and reducing the family workload.

This new report gives a voice to children across the UK.
