Bromley High Street two-way cycling

Submitted by owen on 18 February 2013

Some good news from LBTH for cycling permeability in the borough. Bromley High Street, currently one-way for traffic is to be made two-way for cyclists. The traffic management orders required for this change are currently being processed. There will also be some on-street work required e.g. appropriate signage and a short contra-flow cycle track at the northern end approaching the A11.

We look forward to similar such schemes opening up more direct routes for cyclists around the borough.

Transport for London need Dutch lessons

Submitted by david on 28 January 2013

Transport for London has produced the final response to their consultation regarding their plans to redesign the Mile End Rd/Grove Rd/Burdett Rd junction. Despite London Cycling Campaign (CCC), THW and Queen Mary University (QMU) proposing simple changes to improve conditions for cyclists and pedestrians in addition to their proposal, they are going ahead with their original plans. Both Wheelers and QMU believe more could have been done and that the consultation process was flawed.

Thames Crossing Consultation

Submitted by dave on 24 November 2012

TfL are consulting on proposals for a new East London river crossing. This is aimed at providing more road capacity, and the proposals consist of a new ferry at Silvertown (replacing the Woolwich ferry) and a new tunnel between the Greenwich Peninsula and Silvertown. You can find more details here. The result of these proposals will inevitably be more road traffic in East London, which seems to be  a step in the wrong direction to us...
