My son normally cycles home alone from school. He’s year 6.
On Tuesday after holiday club he phoned me from the bridge saying he could not access Mill Road on his bike because there we’re just too many cars and it was busy. He sounded scared. I cycled down to meet him and cycle back with him and advised him to walk over the bridge with his bike if he feels there are too many cars to cycle.

Bus
Overtaking
A bus overtook a scooter rider on the bridge, pulling in too quickly and causing the scooter ride to hit the pavement and come flying off. Because there are no dedicated cycle lanes it’s really dangerous for scooter riders and cyclists on mill road, especially now the traffic is getting much heavier since the bridge reopened. Mill Road really needs to be rethought with cycle lanes. Maybe make it one way or close the bridge to traffic again.

This made me have to stop on the middle of the road to prevent a fall. The driver didn't stop.
