Dr Scott Arthur

Labour — Edinburgh South West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 22 April 2025

Debate

Road Safety and Active Travel to School

Contribution

I thank the hon. Member for giving way with almost perfect timing. Bikeability is not the only non-infrastructure approach. Every school in my constituency benefits from a 20 mph scheme that covers most of Edinburgh and—I think he is about to touch on this—a pavement parking ban. Those non-infrastructure approaches can be delivered cheaply and quickly. Does he agree that we need more of those in the UK?
