Cyclists campaigning outside of King's Cross

by Helen Olufowobi

Cycling campaigners brought rush hour traffic to a halt at the deadly King’s Cross junction on Monday 23 January as part of a protest to force Transport for London (TfL) to improve bike safety.

The protest, which was the first of a series of weekly demonstrations, was organised by campaign group Bikes Alive, who aim to put pressure on TfL by using non-violent but direct action.
