O'Donovan Yearbook 2016 (Pages).qxp_Layout 1 21/12/2016 13:59 Page 41 David Lammy MP discusses local jobs, safer roads and CSR In May we were visited by David Lammy to discuss initiatives to make London’s roads safer and our work with the local community. “I look forward to following O’Donovan’s success in the future and will continue to support their work keeping vulnerable road users safe and supporting the local economy in Tottenham.” ‘BikeTubes’ on Cycle to Work Day 14 September was Cycle to Work Day and we teamed up with London Cycling Campaign to sponsor a series of led-rides which were aimed at helping people commute by bike for the first time. The BikeTubes are a perfect way to get large groups of cyclists across London at the busiest times and are a great way to build cyclist confidence. We’re committed to seeing that new cyclists get all the support they need cycling to work and appreciate that there needs to be a collaborative relationship developed between the logistics industry and cyclists. No one should be afraid to cycle on London’s roads. “We are delighted that O’Donovan Waste Disposal is supporting the safety of cyclists. London streets can be intimidating in rush hour and the first commute is often the hardest. But with the right support more people can gain the confidence to commute by cycle – which will also help London become the healthier, happier, less polluted and less congested city we all want it to be.” Ashok Sinha, LCC CEO 39
