The Mayor is very concerned indeed by the recent fatal collisions at Bow roundabout and his thoughts and sympathies are with the friends and family of both victims. The Metropolitan Police is investigating both collisions in order to determine the specific causes.  Alongside this, Transport for London (TfL) is urgently reviewing the operation of Bow roundabout.  In addition, TfL will review all major planned schemes on the Transport for London Road Net

London Cycling Campaign | Campaigns | Key campaigns | Bow roundabout Dear Mayor, I'm appalled at the two cyclist fatalities that have taken place recently at Bow roundabout. I'm demanding you implement an urgent and effective redesign of this lethal junction, so no more families suffer the tragic losses of the last few weeks. Yours sincerely David

Consultation on Islington's draft Transport Strategy Dear Consultation on Islington's draft Transport Strategy, I am very concerned at the lack of ambition in this, in particular there should be more to support cyclists. There should be a Target for commutes by cycle. There should be a commitment to reduce air pollution. Speed is a killer on Islington roads, the 20mph speed restriction should be enforced more. There aren't enough secure places to lock up bikes, particulary at tube stations like Cally Road. We could also benefit from more Tfl hire bikes, particulary at hubs and parks, like Caledonian Park with the Tennis Centre and football pitches. As a Holloway resident, both holloway and seven sisters roads are nightmares. There needs to be more bike lanes. There is so much more that could be done to encourage, support and make cycling safer

Please email plans@cityoflondon.gov.uk by Thursday 8 September 2011 to support cyclists http://tinyurl.com/3k2kqj9 Cycling : "Proposed removal of one-way restrictions on some City streets http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/LGNL_Services/Transport_and_streets/Cycling/ Please email plans@cityoflondon.gov.uk by Thursday 8 September 2011 to show your support. In 2009, the City made changes to a number of one-way streets to make the City more permeable, particularly for cyclists.  Since then, the City has reviewed how these have operated and is very encouraged by their success.  As a result, more streets have now been assessed and a consultation on altering these streets is underway. The consultation period for changing the one-way system on eighteen streets is open until 8 September 2011. The affected streets are listed in the table below, which sets out the proposed alterations. Cyclists are being urged to email their support for proposals to revert 10 one

Rediff.com Cricket is not played in every country of the world. For example, when I lived in Tibet, I never heard about this game. Frankly, even now, I do not fully understand cricket! But when you live in India, how can you not be influenced by it? Cricket is one of the most important or prevalent games in India -- some might even call it one of the 'religions' of India -- so one way or another, one gets influenced by the game.  Published with Blogger-droid v1.6.9
