Liveable streets
North south route - consultation
Consultation report is out. Good support but not being as ambitious as they could be. The whole of Grove Road will not be segregated but rely on traffic reduction. Or for a segregation grove road north of the bridge would need to lose parking. Under the bridge it’s too narrow. The cycle way will for the moment stop when it meets CS3.
Emmanuel, first meeting, lives in Tower Hamlets but has friend who works in Canary Wharf. Lives in Wapping
Canary Wharf
AGM: 6 November - validate the accounts, committee members, keep roles quite broad, asking people what they want to do. People who are active and who may want to become committee members, standing for committee to active members
